5 years ago I would have said no thanks. Today I think this scheme is a perfect match for the GTO's brutal character. Love it.
I'm not a fan of the "racing livery" in general, but the red stripe on the GS exterior is beautiful and a rare spec. Any interior pics ? I'm guessing a straight nero interior ?
Good to see the FChat GTO elite liking it ! What's up M ? enjoying the GTO still as much or has the GT3RS become your new favorite ? Any F news from you ? Stephen did your black beast find another passionate owner ?
Still for sale privately. Just dropped price to $659,900 on her (which is the lowest price in the USA for a GTO and the same price as the F of Denver GTO with 8K+ miles on it (my GTO has only 3560 miles on her currently). I had a deal at very close to AP of $667,500, but the buyer just couldn't come up with the financing. So she is still available. The upside is that I was able to drive her for 20 miles this week. Gotta say that a 458 Spyder that was trying to keep up with me on my way home form F of LI was simply CRUSHED by the GTO. The GTO is truly an extraordinary beast. If she only had more traction she'd be perfect. Then again she's be a much less challenging driver with AWD or even a 458's traction level. When the rubber gets really hot the GTO sticks to the tarmac much much better BUT at peak RPM (where ALL of the power lies as she was geared by the factory to have power higher up in the RPM range) the GTO desperately wants to spin her wheels. Yup she is a HUGE amount of fun !
Thanks again for sharing with us the emotions you can feel while driving it. I prefer some of your posts to some automotive articles !
Hi DC. All is well. Hope the same on your end. While I'm racking up the miles in the RS and absolutely love the car nothing beats the GTO. Still my favorite by far. Makes my hair stand up every time I drive it even after 25,600 km such a wonderful machine. No new F's on the horizon but that can change quickly Will keep you posted

Not a fan of the white one with a blue stripe. It smells like an aftermarket job. I find the stripe too flashy and the matching wheels..well... No. The fuji and he red are gorgeous as usual

Very rare ... I personnaly don't like them on a road car. It breaks the sexy curves of the GTO IMO https://scontent-cdg2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t31.0-8/19944437_1838149396202041_3583620451185664920_o.jpg?oh=f4d6638236f721f58be0adaabb806933&oe=5A2DFEFA
There was a rather unique looking GTO at the Pebble Beach parade of F cars. Bronze looking exterior. Also some beautiful nero GTO's (yes I'm partial to Nero). Anybody have pics of that bronze looking GTO ? Maybe rubino mica ?

Thanks for pointing that out. I thought all these times it is a GTO. Can you point out from the pic the difference with a real GTO? Thanks!
