The GTO looks cool from the front. I can definitely tell it's a GTO. However, the rear-end of each car looks horrible, like it was done in five minutes because they ran out of time.

This seems to be the norm with a lot of cars anymore, the C5 and C6 vettes come to mind right away...

It's ironic looking at those cars and realizing that a REAL GTO was all set for production for the 2008 model year, but was cancelled along with the Grand Prix sedan (which eventually became the Pontiac G8).

I think they are cool looking cars, would I drive them, maybe the GTO? I definately wouldn't buy one, but wouldn't mind seeing a few of these out on the road.

T-tops look hideous on the 5th gen body style.

Now the Chevy concept that has been floating around IS all Pontiac. It's a Kappa car that was thrown together to make a Chevy "concept."
What the what?

They did a great job I think, but the GTO needs its own body style. It looks like a modified Camaro. The dashes in those cars needed to be different too.

I like the concepts from the front not so much in the back. T-tops looks good.
