You see, there's this thing called "time". As it passes, things change. Therefore, at the "time" that Scott said that there were only 2, it was true.

Please, when he made that statement, it was like, a couple days before the pics were leaked. You think they built that car in a couple days?

The truth is, there were only 2 cars that the public knew about, while there are probably several more that nobody at GM will admit to, including Scott.

My point being, that although no one at GM will admit it, it's entirely possible that the next GTO exists and that it could be used in an upcoming movie. No matter what anyone at GM says.

I'm not saying it needs to be as heavily raked as the 4th Gen Camaro/Firebird. Just that it needs a little more. The roof seems to start going downward toward the rear a bit too early, making it look a little 'bubblelike' at the top of the windshield to me. I can't explain it.

I loved the extremely aerodynamic look of my '02 Camaro.

I have no problem with the angle of the 5th Gen Camaro though. It's just the Mustangs that I don't care for. The 5th Gen is a perfect 'happy medium' imo.

I wasn't saying I disliked the concepts windshield rake. Just the Mustangs. The Camaro's is much better.
