The SSR is hideous. The only one's I've seen on the road have dealer tags on the back. They may break Prowler's lot-life records, there are still a few Prowlers new in showrooms, and the Prowler is 500% cooler then the SSR for the same $. What a stupid idea that truck-thing is.

It would be the GTO with not a doubt in my mind. The SSR is the most hideous production vehicle I ever seen. They should have kept that ugly bastard as a clay model and nothing else.

Someone came up to my work in an SSR and me and some of the techs were all checking it out. It wasn't THAT bad. Not the prettiest bt wasn't the worst.

I'd take the GTO simply because it's more practical, faster, and if I wanted a truck, I'd buy a truck. Not a crossbreed.

I wouldn't buy either. If someone put a gun to my head and told me that I HAD to choose, I'd say,"Pull the f***ing trigger you puss!!! What are you, CHICKEN?!?!"

the GTO is 1,000,000 x's better than the SSR, but I wouldn't want either...If I had no choice I'd have a head and cammed GTO w/ a whipple on top.

GTO!!!

The GTO is a pretty impressive car. Everyone rips on it because of the boring styling and the fact that it is slower than a Cobra. However it is still one of the cooler cars on the road.

I would take a GTO over any Mustang that is not a 2003 or later SVT Cobra.

4 u only...Mach 1 or GTO, assuming that there is the real price difference.

If I absolutely had to buy one, GTO. While the GTO exterior is boring, I actively dislike the SSR's styling. From a drivetrain and performance perspective the winner is GTO hands down.

That being said, I'd rather just keep my '03 Cobra.

GTO. It has a usable backseat a much nicer interior, an LS1 and a T56.

GTO. I don't really think the SSR is bad looking at all, but it's impractical, overpriced and too slow for what it pretends to be. A Ford Thunderbird would dust it off and a Prowler would too. The SSR should have gotten the Z06 motor simply because its barely even a truck. It doesn't need a truck motor. It needs horsepower and gobs of tire melting torque and a manual tranny.
