Damn Danny. That was stupid. Jeeeeeeez. Its also got "red painted" calipers and a "GTO" badge.
Those things move it into an "exclusive ultra high performance category" But you're from Texas, that proves it......

Mr_GTO, you are exactly correct, just look at the bottom of your post. It states right there "Southie"....

Did I see it right? 0-60 is faster for the automatic. Why would that be?

Wonder if, by chance, they got the AT's MPGs under the government fine limit? Couldn't tell from the post info. I like the changes so far.

Better torque converter. Or rather, the extra power from the engine makes the converter stall higher. An aftermarket converter can improve your quarter mile times immensely, simply by allowing the engine to rev into the power band more quickly.

I'm glad to see the new colors. Wasn't really enthralled by ANY of the color options on the '04.

Any word on price?
