    Well here is a simple question to all of you out there, if you could have on or the other which would it be? Oh and to be more specific the two to choose from are 04 GTO only, not 05 or 06 because that has the 6L and tends to be more expensive (go figure...) So if you could have an 04 GTO or lets say 02 WS6 which would it be?

    Personally I am leaning towards the WS6 more because it looks so sexy and the power output is still pretty close.

    yeah youll be sitting at a light in a ls1 gto and someone in a ls2 is gonna roll up next to you and your gonna feel like crap and a worthless pile for not buying the better car..haha IMO i would get a ws6 cause i love it alot or save up extra cash and dish out the money for a ls2 gto

    04 GTO hands down. Cheaper to mod, with better results. Im biased tho .

    But the goat is heavy, which negates the advantage you might have from IRS.

    Thus the WS6.

    However the goat is much easier to look at than a WS6.

    if you take corners, buy the goat. if you go fast in a straight line, buy the WS6.

    it was heavily apparent between the two cars (two friends had similar power level GTO and WS6) and the GTO handled way better in the corners whereas you had to basically drift the WS6 to make it to where you wanted it.

    The 04 GTO looks like a bloated Grand Prix.

    Wouldn't buy either.

    If I had to buy either, it's a GTO.

    Interior in the TA is probably worse than a GP. Solid rear axle. Huge front overhang. Fast.

    GTO is obese. Fugly. Fast.

    Consider a C5. Fast.

    Interior: GTO>C5>WS6

    Handling/Chassis: C5>>GTO>WS6

    I'm gonna say neither. I'll go with a Formula. Stealthy v6 look but still packing an LS1.

    Like my old one.

    No More GTP for me.
