Thread: Pontiac or Import?

Tweet

I just read a new testing on the new GTO.
What a joke I can't tell if its a import wannabe or just a joke of an attempt at replacing the Trans am.
An Edsle has more styling IMO and I am not impressed with what they are calling high performance 14 sec in the quarter, I mean come on it looks like a shaved down sunfire crossed with a grand am. Hell I can make a pinto run 14's too but its still ungly. They plan on old GTO owners to like this car? Where does this styling even show anything like a TRUE gto?

Atleast the new mustang went with a somewhat retro look.

And the cost estimated at 30 to 38k ? I can buy a focus or sunfire at 18k and make it run just as fast if not faster with less money.

I just wanted to know what yall think about the GTO wannabe

JP, here's a link to a thread from a couple weeks ago that will give you some of the opinions. http://www.clubhotrod.com/forums/sho...ghlight=gto%2A

It has 2 doors, 4 seats, a V8 and RWD. Right now it's the nearest thing to a ponycar that GM has.

Give the car a couple of years to mature and they will start offering lower trim lines and possibly more power. The car has potential to go fast, it's just overburdened with power everything.
