Looks real aggressive (problem with current GTO). Too bad it appears to be a wide-body kit which = very expensive, which in turn = little chance of it seeing production.

The Ram Air 6 is a concept made by a enthusiast designer and engineer inside GM. Just be happy that the perons that made this is probably on a future Chevy coupe.

Re: 05 Gto?

Are the scoops on the Woodward GTO functional? I prefer the look, but I can see why GM went with the production design on the second picture. It seems as if they're trying to keep changes to a minimum. Inset grill is nice....

Re: 05 Gto?

I think the production changes look real nice, much more aggressive than the 04 GTO. Still needs some new wheels though, I really don't care for that style they've been going with...

It's gonna be a mean SOB with the 400hp LS2...

Re: 05 Gto?

The main reason why the Woodward GTo loks so much better IMO is becasue it looks so much more "smoothed out". Look at the front of those 2 cars. The Woodward looks much more planned out. The black on look s like 5 guys had differant idead and they all got to add them to the front with out talking to each other. There is just too much going on with the '05 model.

THe doors are the same as stock car, the rest is new fiberglass components, besides the roof that is

I love the Woodward GTO. Too bad the 05 is going to suck just as bad as the 04 as far as looks go. F*** GTO.
