Fug Lee. This picture made the rounds on this forum months ago. The car is still butt ugly. From the side it looks like a Mustang. The front end looks like a previous generation Misubishi Galant. Talk about retro.
If GM wants the Pontiackk brand to recapture the lost F-body market with a cheaply built and tasteless car, this would probably do. The wing on the back definitely makes it faster. Dont' forget to throw in a live axle. We don't need no stinkin handling, just make sure we don't have wheelhop at the dragstrip.
I hope GM heads more upscale with the GTO and leaves the F-body crowd with the Camaro. That would give them a three tiered product line with camaro at the bottom to compete with Mustang/Charger, GTO in the middle to compete with mid-high level Jap & Euro luxo coupes, Corvette at the top to compete with anyones high performance machinery.
Positioning the GTO this way might actually erase some of the negative brand image Pontiackkk has carefully crafted for 35 years.
