Me too, I'm not a huge fan of silver but my Z was a steal so I figured I could always paint it later.

Forget the Camaro and keep the Goat bro. That Goat is beautiful. The interiors in the GTO are awesome and its so much roomier. The GTO has backseats that you can actually sit in. The Camaro is cramped and my passengers often complain about the little room. The leather and other interior parts in the GTO are of better quality than the Camaro's cheap hard plastics. Oh yeah, its also got the 400 horsepower 6.0 liter LS2. The bigger the engine, the better. The GTO has a 6-speed also, better than the SS's automatic.

Beautiful car. Runs factory spec. times at the track. I have been surfing http://pistonslap.com/ about the issue. I can remember a few of my other GM vehicles that had this sort of issue to one extent or another. Like I said, I will def. have to bring this to mechanic and have them look at it.

I agree with you 100%. THere is just something about those camaros... they are definite head turners and just stand out in the crowd. I wish they would have gone a little more retro with the design of the GTO; it looks too much like a fat grand prix... The GTO is put up for the winter and so is the camaro, so luckily I have a few months to mull it over. I really do appreciate the input.

There should a few pictures of the car. I appreciate the opinions so far. Should I be a little more concerned with the piston slap? I will probably take it down to my Chevy Dealer if I decide to go further with it, just to get it looked over.

I love catfish camaroes, but i loveee the new GTOs too... IMO, i would keep the GTO, ONLY because i hate convertibles. all convertibles no matter what car (no offense, any convertible camaroers)

It def. is fun to drive; not the fastest out of the dig; once i hit 2nd gear, thats when you can feel all the power. Only draw backs is that the stock shifters in these things SUCK, One of the worst i've driven; nothing a shifter change cant fix though, and the tires are too thin (235/40/18); while you guys are putting down 275+ without having to roll your fenders.

The Goats are nice, but I'd still take my T/A over one. Before I bought the T/A I looked into a 06 Goat, real nice car for a DD, but I wasn't crazy about the looks of the car. Do you prefer manual or automatic? Yout Goat is a 6spd but the Maro is an auto, doesn't seem like an upgrade to me. I also am not a fan of verts, but to each their own. I definately think the F bodies are bigger head turners and around me, more rare.
