Why are Pontiac GTOs (the 2000's Australian imported ones) so underrated by everyone including the insurance company? I was looking for a cheaper competitor to the car I was looking at (2010 Camaro SS) and I found one of these >400 HP >3,700 Lbs >muted design >hideous front end
It's faster in a straight line despite being 5 years older and having an LS2 compared to the Maro's LS3, and the biggest kicker is I can insure the fucker for 1-0-8 dollars a month. For comparison, the Camaro was going to put me in 144 a month, and I pay 118 a month for liability and uninsured on my DD. What the fuck is going on? Anybody own one? Should I get it? I really think I should
Stay away from the auto and get one with low miles

Watch out for common issues >fucked rotors (shit from the factory) replace with slotted >t56 3rd gear and reverse might be a bit touchy if it was abused >MAF sensor can shit itself (mafless recommended) They are slow from the factory hence why i recommend the MAFless tune or upgrade to a bigger maf and a tune when u get intake and exhaust you should be getting well north of 350rwhp

this southern cross is related to workers rights, happened during the original mining boom in the 1800's when the miners and cops fought over rights to mine. pretty much stands for workers rights these days.
