PS - Does anyone know if that has the same bolt patterns as the GP? I kind of like those wheels. They are simple, but clean looking.

No the F-body doesn't share the same bolt pattern as ours.

The WS6 is my dream car. If I were buying a sports car, that would be it. It had everything.

That's a stupid shifter that they put on it. The stock one with the numbers looks nicer.

for US $24,980.00 you are better off with a low mileage GTO

I agree with that.
I'm looking at a trans am for a summer car last year. No way I would pay that much.... I would be getting one with higher mileage, and I'm not so sure I can come across with a GTO with a good miles:price ratio for me, not to mention insurance costs, and I would need a 400hp one devilsmile

Future Pontiac garage:
2005 GTO
around 2000 Trans Am WS6
Grand Prix supercharged GT (winter)

that sounds niiiiice.
now colors.... red, metallic orange, and silver, respectively.

Ya a usded modern GTO is about the same price and a stronger motor to boot but it's not anywhere as sexy as a Firehawk WS6.

Point taken. But it doesn't look anything like this:



I want the car that looks like you are going to be sucked in if you stand to close while it is running.

I don't see why not. Maybe some custom motor mounts, custom headers and a PCM from a GTO and your set.

But why go through that when for the same cost as the LS6 you can mod that LS1 and get way over the 400 hp the LS6 puts out. The Firehawks iirc were stock at 335.

x2. :x

The GTO is alot stronger with that 400 HP, but the design of it is just a bit disappointing (Don't hurt me, Jizz!). I mean, they're still pretty nice looking, but like Bryant said, a WS6 looks like it will break free and eat you alive. I had the .. scare .. of being next to a manual trans one at a stoplight the other day, and he kept having manual rollback .. then would accelerate it forward .. over and over until the light turned green and my mind returned to my body. It looked exactly like that one, too .. black, terrifying. *shudder* Now on the other hand, I've seen three or four GTO's to that one T/A, and they pretty much just got the reaction "oh that's cool".

Drop that 400 HP monster in that T/A terror, and get back to me.

Why stop there?

Let's throw an M90 on it and turbocharge it. Ah heck, twin turbos, please!

its nice to know there is someone here that has it worse than I do for one of these cars...I'll admit just the look of it stirs my insides and makes my brain get euphoric, but I have yet to reach for any kind of lubricant thumbsup
