GTO 6.0 competition

GTO was the Trans Am/Z28 GM should have made in the mid 2000s, 100 more hp than the Mustang had in 2005. 2010 Camaro SS came out with 426 hp LS3 and Ford had to wake up, I guess they didn’t think of the GTO as competition but they should have. They’re about even now in a straight line but Mustangs have never handled like F bodies, that’s why YouTube is full of videos of them hitting everything.

Dollar for dollar this is one of the fastest cars produced in the last 15 years. Lots of ignorant comments here from people who clearly do not build. This car will eat most $80,000 cars for around $12,000 todays cost. Intelligently put $10,000 into it and nearly nothing on the street can beat it. Just lots of ignorance in this thread.

Underated or not, its still not doing 189Mph. Even if it had 430Bhp real power, It wouldnt do it. A 5.7 03-04 model with 350Bhp had a max of 167Mph(Limiter cutoff 158Mph)(I know stupid)
A Hsv Vz GTO Coupe is said by Hsv to hit 180Mph even, Most have reported 176Mph, ANd that has the same engine, and gearing(With exception of 5th and 6th) and "Slightly" better Aero, And that doesnt do 189Mph.
2005 C6 400Bhp 187Mph, 2004 911 Turbo 415Bhp 188Mph, 360 CS 425Bhp 186Mph, 2004 493Bhp CL55 AMG Unlimited 189Mph.
Fastest stock 2006 400Bhp GTO i believe has been 172Mph, SOme "Speedos" showing higher. This does not do 189Mph plain and simple, Not with what it has.

It CAN reach 189 but ONLY with a few thousand miles. https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20140716233231AAjx3mr

Hey guys, i agree it is sad there are no track times :( once i have more time and money ill get working on the tracks in CA though, although mine will be with full exhaust and track suspension. If you want performance out of a GTO that's really all you have to do... really transformed the handling ability of the car.

The vauxhall monaro (basically the same car) went around top gears track in 1:30.1
That is the same time as the 05 sti that they tested.
