Hot Wheels Rapid Transit " '07 GTO"?

Looks like Hot wheels did another Muscle car concept just like Muscle tone.

I think it looks like a GTO

I couldn't find any actual shots of the front, the grill look very 67 GTO IMHO

The first one looks like a tricked out Celica, but the Green ones are obviously variations of the Cuda, the neon green paint, black AAR style stripes and Cuda rear fenders, similar to early Camaro, but it says Dodge to me...nice future concept of what a Cuda could look like...

Interesting, but I don't think it looks like a GTO. It has more pony car-like dimensions, even in that scale.

Isn't that the Muscle Tone car of a few ryeas ago some of you really wanted to be the 5th gen? But know with Chrysler style paint and strobe graphics?

Actually, I have seen this in the store, and I guess I should've bought one. I thought it looked more like a Pontiac-ized version of the Muscle Tone. So, with that, I think it looks more like a retro version of the Firebird instead of the GTO. I could also buy some of the 'Cuda cues someone else mentioned, but I don't really see any GTO in it at all.

I picked one up back in January. It's sitting on a shelf in my room with a few other cars.

Actually, it looks more like a Mopar, not a GTO.

2007 GTO? Not.

The actual toy looks cool, but that drawing is hideous, IMO. I can see a bit of Pontiac in the nose of the drawing, though.

looks like a blending of an AAR cuda, (1st gen camaro), 3rd gen camaro, and a slight hint of GTO.

The back looks Mopar, but I thought the front looked very 67 GTO
