Hi, everybody--
I've just joined this fourm as I begin my (second) search for my own muscle car. The first search happened ten years ago only to end with me not being able to afford the Z28 I wanted; then, Chevy stopped making the Camaro, so I figured my muscle car dream would have to wait.
Now I've discovered the GTO.....
But I'm curious. I keep reading about how this is an Australian car sent to the U.S. to be sold, but I can't find anything that details why this decision was made or why it was called GTO or anything. Can anybody provide that history? It's not a deal killer, don't misunderstand, I'm just trying to learn as much as I can.
Also, another mystery I must solve.... I sell cars for a Saturn dealership but nobody there knows if my GM discount would cover the GTO, or only a Saturn. If anybody has any info on that, I would greatly appreciate it; otherwise, I need to track it down. --Brian
