Gary brought home his swaddling bundle of joy tonight — a 2006 Pontiac GTO. For the past few years, he’s been chained to an SUV, and he’s been itching to get back into a car for some time now. The GTO has the same engine that powers the Corvette, and Gary is loving it. I don’t think I’ll be able to get that smile off his face for weeks.
I have to admit it’s fun to drive. The GTO boasts 400 horsepower, which means it accelerates from 0-60 in 4.7 seconds. I’m not a speed freak, but that kind of power is sweet — even for me. The manual transmission makes it even more fun because you have complete control over the power (thanks Dad for teaching me to drive a “stick shift”; it comes in handy from time-to-time).
The exterior is bright blue, and the interior is black with some well placed blue stitching and brushed nickel on the cockpit. For more details, check out Gary’s blog and be sure to congratulate him on his new baby.

The GTO is greatness! Thanks for finding the car for me. I’m really loving it and looking forward to my future with it.
