Re: Pontiac Chops on GMI

The GTO chop is pretty cool, I like the G8 one as well, the other two need some work.

Re: Pontiac Chops on GMI

Those 1st 2 Firebirds are absolutely HORRID!

The red G8 looks great.

The orange G6 doesn't do anything for me. :blah:

Yeah I agree, out of all of them the G8 is the best.

Re: Pontiac Chops on GMI

I still like the gto...has a good "here come da judge" theme...even though the front end still needs some work...

Honestly, I like them all. Especially the GTO and G8.

That Firebird is awful. If thats how it was going to keep back, let it RIP. The GTO is alright, but the G8 I like....a lot.

Re: Pontiac Chops on GMI

I'm not a fan of any of those chops. The bird looks like a bad chop of a third generation F-Body. I like most of the goat except for the front end, it looks like the predator. The G8 is alright, need a little work and the G6 screams late 80's early 90's pontiac concept car to me. I liked the Buicks due to them looking a bit more realistic.

Re: Pontiac Chops on GMI

I think I posted most of my feelings on GMI, but yeah, I don't much like it. I hope someone else comes up with a different line up because theirs, IMO, is terrible..

Re: Pontiac Chops on GMI

The first couple might appease Pontiac fanatics, but I don't see them selling.

The G8 is probably exactly the type of predictable badge-jobbing we will see. A safe bet.

The G6 looks somewhat like a 90s Oldsmoblie. Unfortunately that means it's realistic styling for 2010 GM sedan. Still the best looking and most attractive one.
