Re: 2004 GTO
Just a thought on modifying the new GTO. Why do "unmolested" and "survivor" cars get the most $$$ attention nowadays? Because 99.999% of our favorite 1960s musclecars were modified by their owner(s) and "molested" constantly over the years. Nowadays an unmodified, unrestored stocker seems to be the hot find. Why do we call an unmodified stocker a "virgin" car? Because it hasn't been f____d to death by numerous owners. Think about it. Who wouldn't want a beautiful virgin '65 GTO today? Or a beautiful, untouched, virgin '69 ZL-1? Yeah, you can perform face-lifts and tummy tucks to your heavily-abused '69 COPO and have a valuable asset but the virgin stocker will always command more attention and $$$. Oh, and I've modified a few cars in my time, as we all have, but the virgin stocker has a past that doesn't nag at your conscience.
