I used to own a 2005 GTO auto when I was in college. It was a great car, fast in a straight line, looked and sounded great (corsa cat back). Having owned 2 Z's now, I'd definitely pick the Z over the GTO any day. I just enjoy driving it more than the GTO. The Z doesn't throw my head back as much as the GTO did, but every other aspect of the car definitely makes up for it. You're not going to beat everyone at the redlight in the Z, but you'll have a lot more fun driving it as the sports car that it is.
My first Z was a 2015 base model, I almost immediately wanted to upgrade the rear tires, brakes, and suspension. I ended up trading it in for a 2016 Sport model so I could have all those things and the rev match, and man was it worth it!
