I am in the process now of looking up and down the east coast for the best quote on a 06 GTO spiced red, 6sp, 18" wheels, ground effects kit & grill inserts. So far my best quote is 32500. I'm not saying where but this one is looking real good. What have you guys paid for one similer?

Hold out for $500 under invoice (about $30,300) for 6 speed trans. Now that spring is here, this may be tough but internet shop price and then visit on the last weekend of April.

Sounds pretty close to list, maybe a hair under. In any event, you might want to see how they are moving off the lot right now since GM made the decision to end production. I know that they haven't been selling that fast, and, come mid summer, you might find one that a dealership is willing to unload. The only thing is that, for a reason that seems completely illogical to me, manuals are not easy to find. They had to bring mine for south of Cleveland! In any even, the packages are all dealer installed, so it's not a big deal to wait.
 
The 18" wheels are a must! The car looks better, and the ride is still supurb!

Does anyone know a web site or any other way to find out how many cars they have sold for a given model year?

06 GTO 6speed prices by jack0565

I just started looking for an 06 6AT here in San Jose, Ca.
The one dealership that I looked at had serious markups,
around 6 grand,listed on the price sheet. Has anyone made any recent purchases in the area? I would do some driving to save money. The price they list totaled over 38,000. That's crazy. Just trying to get a reference point for cost.

I have heard that SoCal is the hot place for GTO's since they are sort of a blank slate and they are perfect for the drift crowd. Search around for them in other places and buy the $300 one way. I know a buddy of mine was looking at an '04 a while back that a dealership in Missouri was going to unload for the mid $20's. But I also know that all of the company GTO's at GM evaporated the minute they announced the EOP. You might be caught in the rush to get the last ones.

New 2005 GTO Price in SF by sammy15

SF dealer with 5 new MT '06 GTOs list them at $32,685 and $33,165 (with 18 in wheels) before $700 destination. Seems to me you should be able to bargain maybe $1,000 to $2,000 lower. Say $1,500 less is good, then they go for $31,185 and $31,685 (w/ 18" wheels) before dest charges.
Now they have also one new leftover AUTO Cyclone Grey GTO with 18" wheels. MSRP is like $34,800 including the $700 destination and the $1,300 gas guzzler tax. (Remember GM lowered MSRP ~$1,000 on '06.) Dealer has best buy sale on the new '05 for $28,995. WHAT IS IT WORTH? I was guessing $25,000 + $700 dest + $1,300 gas tax = $27,000 is fair. No clue whether dealer would take it. Is $28,000 reasonable?
What about the incentives? Various different websites say $500, $750 & 1,000. Should that be factored in? I have GM CARD Earnings, which should save me $1,000 according to GMCARD.COM.
I will also buy front mesh grills ($235 - $270)and smokers package ($100 - $140) and maybe emergency car kit ($65 - $75)
Finally, if I go with sunroof (hope it doesn't reduce headspace too much as I am 6'4"), should I have dealer do it and at what cost ($1,100?) or find an authorized Westgo dealer to install it at what cost - $1,200?

0% financing on 2006's by theericharris1

The lowest quote I received on a leftover 2005 was $27000 (automatic, 17" wheels).
 
GM is going to offer 0% financing for 72 months on 2006's, the rumor has it. Should start either tomorrow or on the 1st of July.
 
Don't settle for a 2006 (M6 18") for more than $30,000 and the 0%/72 months.

I'm also 6-4 and there's barely enough headroom for me with the solid roof.
 
I've been getting internet quotes on new '05s here in Ohio and the numbers have been surprisingly high - mostly mid 28s and up. For another 1k, I could buy an '06.

Thanks all. I am worried about being 6'4", but I sat in one in the dealer and it seemd okay for a 2+2 coupe. I think I will pass on the sunroof if I will lose 1-2 inches as I guess I would.
The next reply points out the new '06 should be ~$30K for M6. That's $30.7K w/ dest. charge. Auto would be ~$29.3K + $700 dest. + $1,300 gas guzzler = $31,300. That's about $1K less than I thought you could get in the Bay Area, but what do I know.
The question then is a new leftover 2005 Auto w/ 18" wheels worth what I think is $26K? $27K? or is it closer to the dealer best buy price of $29K? I assume that price covers the $700 dest. + $1300 gas guzzler, since they advertised it against the MSRP of 2005 which also included those numbers plus the $495 for the 18" wheels.
I like the 2005 model I saw (the only AUTOMATIC there), I like that the changes to the 2006 are minor and mean very little to me, and I like the car dealership being right near my home, all pointing toward paying a little more. But I have heard the resale value of the GTO is not as high as a Toyota or Honda (duh!), so am afraid the car has depreciated over 1 year more than the dealer would admit to.
