    Default The GTO that Canada will get

    Thank God the hood scoops are only optional.

    93 Camaro Z28 (The fast one)
    01 Trans Am WS6 (The cute one)
    Esla T6 Dog Sled (Not cute, not fast, scary as hell)

    I saw one that looked better than that... check this month's Motor Trend if anyone here gets it. I can post a scan later, but it looks pretty good. I'm excited about the 400hp and the dual-dual exhaust.

    it was a joke, referring to the fact that it is so high off the ground.

    looks the same as any other gto but with poorly integrated hood scoops. more power always kicks ass though

    it doesnt look right. i think it may actually be a bad picture or bad angle or something. they dont look that lame in real life (unless they have changed the body since 2004)

    Yeah, GTOs look alright. I saw one at Formula D a month ago or so, but then again, that was with the body kits and stuff.

    I get what you are saying, It looks like a 1/18 model of what it should look like. At least if you hit a racoon it will go right into the air intake.

    I've seen them in person and they dont look high at all when ur next to it.
    Lost in a Roman wilderness of pain. And all the children are insane.

    I think its a disgrace that they put the GTO name on this car.

    Looks like a Bonneville/Grand Prix/Grand Am - in other words they brought back a legendary car and made it look like nothing special

    Like the HP and the fact that its RWD, but they should have put a different name on this. Save the GTO name for a Pontiac that looks really mean. This isn't it.

    I saw a review of this thing on Road & Track or Car and Driver or something and they didn't like it at all. They said there wasn't enough time put into development and it just didn't feel right. Too bad they ruined the GTO brand.

    looks like it got mixed with a grand prix and a neon. Hood scoop makes it look werid only good thing about is the gain in horsepower

    Agree with you on all points. I'm disappointed in Pontiac.

    ...........snip
    You rather have the traditional "Pontiac" styling with the hood vents, side moldings that take up half the car and wacky wheels?
