you looked at the ponti gto and said no part availability.
that may be true on your continent but not mine have a look at postage prices to america and decide. cause they are common here and sold cheap too as they are based off of our best selling car and the gto or monaro sold quite well here aswell.

The motor's nice, the body's nice, but the rest of the car is a piece of crap. My buddy's dad has one and he's had plenty of problems with it...
- The top doesn't fit right. The side windows rub it and wear holes in it. He's replaced his once, and the second one is about to wear through.
- The interior is god awful. No storage. The seats suck. You can't see out. The dash doesn't fit right. The door panels squeak and don't fit right. Everything is made of cheap, black plastic.
- No trunk. The bulky top takes up almost all of your "trunk" storage. The only access to the "trunk" is through the clamshell over the top well. It's absolutely retarded. A Fiero has better trunk space.
- The transmission feels like what it is - a clunky POS out of a Chevy Colorado pickup.
Is it quick? Yeah. Does it look pretty? Yeah. But I wouldn't have one. Plus, it's a Pontiac orphan so I'm sure parts will start to get scarce soon.

Didn't think about those, never drove one, Ill have to do that. Are they pretty reliable?
Most of the stock replacement parts for the GTO have to be ordered from AUS even small ---- like tie rods. GM has to stock parts for a car for so long, but when they killed the GTO here they severely cut the parts catalog, so instead of having a rack, inners and outters listed, they only offer the whole rack and say the tie rods arent serviceable. Its ----.
Not in price range and I want a 2 door
Sucks to here, I'd probably only get one if I could find a hardtop though. Ive only ever seen 2 around here, but If I found a GXP hardtop for sale local Id jump all over it
Not a fan of the MR-S. If I could drive soemthing that slow everyday Id just rock an NC
Already looked at them, I still want a FRC or Z06 but not right now, and not as a DD.

Friends father bought one brand new in 2004 and daily drives it year round, has over 185k miles and runs like a champ. Has changed the battery, brakes, oil, spark plugs and tires. Strangely, he traded a 750iL for it... Pulls nice and hard too.
