So I was hosing down my carport when I realized something was in my way -- the GP and the sentra were parked on the driveway... hmmm... guess it was the '04 impulse blue GTO I just purchased! Finally found a blue-with-blue-leather-interior low mileage GTO for a good price I'd been searching for. It's the ls1 engine, with 16k miles on it and I love it! To all the GTO-naysayers please refrain from making negative comments, thanks. I'll post up some pictures once I actually spend the $5 on a new usb cord for my camera. edit: got a couple quick pictures up -- will have to get some interior pictures tonight and post them as well. Oh, and Bobby -- get yer own stinkin' GTO!

congrats the new addition to your family! I know that this is an austrailian vehicle, but couldnt they have designed it to look a bit more agressive?

It does need a new hood -- looking at some of the aftermarket hoods, my father-in-law runs a body\paint shop on Long Island so we are trying to convince him to hook up a nice custom paintjob for the new hood and the car itself. Brown: It looks a little more aggressive in person than the pictures portray - however, I am kind of liking the unexpected reactions from people when I take off on them. Anyhow, here are some interior pics:

I'm not knocking your car in any way, but I have seen new GTO's in person and they dont seem to look agressive enough, or at least to my liking.

I agree that the GTOs don't look nearly as aggressive as the Camaro and Firebirds they replaced, ya know how ws6's looked as if they'd eat you alive. I like the understated appearance with the nice engine... it's fun to surprise people who don't know much about these cars. I'd wanted an '06, they've added some real nice visual changes, but this was a good deal that I couldn't let slip past. Hey Bobby -- keep an eye on Carmax, not the best place for cars, but occasionally a good car pops up
