2005 GTO rendering

2005 GTO rendering from Popular Mechanics....

http://popularmechanics.com/popmech/...4gtorf-450.jpg


This looks to be a definite improvement. More aggressive....I'm sure not as much as many would like....but I'd be much more interested in this design than the current 2004.

That hood makes the car

From the start thats all I thought the car needed.

Thumbs up

I like that one. Makes the car look more aggressive, without looking like it's trying too hard.

You do realize it's pretty much the exact same car you have been bashing for weeks.... but with a different hood, right?

That looks an awful lot like Ted Krygier's work (!!!TED!!!). Why are you people obsessed over these hood scoops?

Details like the hood (functional or not), wheel/tire selection, ride height, or even the exhaust note can have a huge impact on the cars appearance, attitude, and perception.
I like the drawing and the pic of the blue car.

Looks better than the 04 even though it still looks alot like it. That hood is real good.
