I ran a GTO a couple weeks ago in Pennsylvania in my 06 Magnum SRT8 with CAI and exhaust getting 21MPG. Took him on both pulls, even worse through turns. I thought for sure that I would get eaten alive by the GTO...granted it's all about the driver. Don't know what he had, aside from the custom paintjob and huge cowl hood...
I would buy the GTO just because I know its a manual trans, plus I have a Magnesium Pearl SXT so upgrading to a an SRT8 would be pointless. GTO has better fuel economy and can be found for a low price. The wagon will serve its purpose, while the GTO kills on the weekend.
i like both cars imo thay are about even, a drivers race. i was looking at the srt8 magnum before i got my gto. the only thing i don't like about my gto is i keep breaking things, mostly rear ends. i am now runing mid 11's in the 1/4 and have broke 2 stock irs units and just broke a soild moser m9 ford 9" rear this weekend?
nice run dude ,but it does look lik the GTO is stock n the guy cant drive for shit...lol ive ran on my stock 2005 M6 GTO 13.48...idk i guess if u even out the exhaust and CAI plus a better GTO driver it would b a tight race...but nice station wagon lol keep up the nice kills man
@AFGHANBOI89 Wtf are you talking about? 13.4sec is a great time for a GTO. The fastest published times I can find on any professional testing sites is 13.3sec.
man theres no way the mag has what you said it has.I have raced a srt 8 mag charg and challenger and i beat em all with my 06 gto with an X-pipe.Somebody is lieing
2005 Pontiac GTO, ls2 engine. 6.0, 400hp and 400 torque. 0-60 4.6 seconds. 12.8. Sec 1/4 mile. Limited to 163 mph. With out limiter it can go 186 mile per hour. The GTO would beat a magnum anyway if they both had the same driver.
the song heard is "Can't You See",Performed by the Marshall tucker Band.
good to know thats why ive decided to go with an 06 in black with the rt hemi not as bad on gas and still moves
@xsvironman the magnum is a station wagon
I have a Magnum RT but i love both the Srt8 and th gto

@hotcornernoprob its more if the gto driver messes up his shifts being how the magnum is auto
@freemichealvick07 A stock 6.1L SRT8 will dyno at about 370hp to the wheels.
man, imagine if the magnum got a good reaction time too
SRT8's for the win!!
Pretty nice..I wonder if that GTO was a M6 or an A4..
Stock and stock the GTO and SRT are both 13.3's..
You took the launch though..
i used to have a magnum str8 but it cost to much on fuel :(
its all good we all make mistakes lol i use to think my gto weighted 4000lbs to
