hey,
i'm the new guy!
i've been looking real hard at trading in the goat for a 2008 Lancer Evolution.
i can't get what i want for trade-in but the GTO is not a bad car to be stuck with
here's a few pictures

 

is that the 6.0(or 6.1? im to lazy to search it up) liter V8?

 

6.0 400hp stock

 

Muscle to finesse eh?



The goat is one of the only american cars I can stomach.

 

make the trade!

 

Trading the dog? hope not! lol

 

those wheels....

 

Keep the dog, ditch the car

Ya, its 6.0. Ya, 400 bhp. Ya, it's Australian. Ya, it's really heavy. But if you are going to an X - thats heavy too.

The GTO was one of the cars I tested before buying my Evo. It just didn't have that raw feel (accel, braking, handling). Felt like I was riding a sedated goat.

I have not driven the X (only the Lancer GTS and DE). I don't know if its like the 8/9 in terms of feel. But my guess is no. But go test drive one - after all, its your money.

 

if i make the trade i'll have no money for mods

i would trade that dog for a half a cup of bacon grease

 

Motegi wheels

 

Unless you have the 6.0 I wouldn't even bother with the 5.7l. The 5.7l is clearly an underachiever. Keep that dog though!!
