Lude Generation

Have been offered a 3.0 v6 twin turbo gto for good money. Was wondering if any one had any experience with them to help me decide if should get or not. Thanks blonde

I've worked on a couple and driven one years ago...one had a gearbox issue can't remember quite what it was, maybe syncros... They weigh quite a lot due to all the 4wd 4ws v6 turbo ness going on and there for it didn't feel that quick, my BB4 felt faster to be honest.. But there is something very cool about them and I they sound nice too..

So cool

@Paul72 (if he's still about) had one, although I think he had quite a serious rust issue with his

Edit: Oh wait sorry, he had an FTO Sorry to disturb you Paul

Only ever worked on one, but from that experience - expect every bolt you ever attempt to slacken to shear as you try. And keep a spare engine handy. And spare Active-Aero kit. And a spare ECU. And be good at wiring fixes ...

Thanks jebb4 he did tell me there is a bit of a crunch in the gears but not wich one. By the sound of it there cool but a pain to live with. I really carnt make up my mind I love my lude but twin turbos sounds good.

They look bulky and overweight. I have never seen the appeal with them.

Not sure i would, looked at a couple 2 years back and almost bought one, but after speaking to various people about them, I realised i would be able to drive my prelude every day where as the GTO would always having something wrong with it! Gearboxs are always having issues!!

Yer lankysod that's what am getting now to. After looking in to it more oh well gess will just have to stick with the lude. For now

As Delboy would say "You know it makes sense!"
