Sleeper GTO Is Juiced !!!!
About this Current Vehicle:
Built By Holden Motors of Australia as the Monaro. It was rebadge as the Pontiac GTO and sold in the U.S. for the 04-06 model years. My GTO is a Torrd Red A4 with Red/ Black Interior. 1 Of 499. The Monaro is known as the most popular muscle car in Australia. It has countless wins at Bathurst and perhaps Peter Brock (R.I.P.) is known as the most popular Monaro racer who has nine victories to his credit (1972, 1975,1978, 1979, 1980, 1982, 1983, 1984 and 1987). Aussie versions of Dale Earnhardt. (R.I.P.)
Now here in the State as the GTO the car took off slow but now (because of heat exchanging hood scoops and duel exhaust that exit's out both sides and the ls2 400 hp power plant) for the 05 / 06 ) Its involved in the NHRA , Grand Am Rolex GT as the GTO-R 2 With TRG Racing, RMR Drift GTO with Rhys Millen, Spirit of Daytona's Grand Am Cup with Bobby Labonte
Now thats impressive !!!

Awsome GTO! Can you change all the torque management with the Diablo Predator?? I know it has the options but the manual does not explain how and Im not really wantn to screw it up!
very nice GTO, car has both looks and performance, nice work.
I didn't know that they had any rare collector's versions of the GTO/Monero. Sweet.
Hope you read Jon's article in the new issue of the Legend.... According to the rules for this year's Nats, you'll be in super mod because of the visable Nitrous parts in your engine bay!!!!! Oh yes, we all can see your WOT switch!!!!
