Re: Gto....

I like the black one, but not so much the exhaust on it. The side exhaust thing doesn't work for me unless you can see the pipes, and that only worked on the old style muscle cars. No modern car could pull that look off.

The red one would look better with a spoiler like the black one has. It has a lot happening on the front, with a bland as hell butt in comparison.

Re: Gto....

Oh, I thought PS was either that or someone initials.

Thanks, they both look good.

Re: Gto....

I like it, but with some really impressive new cars coming out (camaro and challenger) I think they need something more.

Re: Gto....

I agree, as a refresh it would have been fine. But to have a production gap and then realease whats hardly distinguishable from the first would be quite dissapointing.

Altezzas looked tacked on in addition to the rear being generally underdone, spoiler is ever so wrong, side vents and hoodscoops... Well you know.

Also as futile as it may be I hope to see something outside of the 20 year old lame Pontiac grille... on everything not just this. I also dont like the roofline or hugeness of the rear quarter window, didnt like that last time, but i understand the interior may require it.

Re: Gto....

I'll be honest... if the GTO comes out just a little bit better looking than those photoshops, I'll have one over a Camaro... looks more subtle, is all...

reminds me of a bmw 3 series

Re: Gto....

Are automanufacturers allowed to do exhaust out the side?
