Looks good, i hope it is the real thing. In the article it says that the GTO gets a new front end, but it looks the same to me. It also talks about the gas tank, exhaust, and power increase but i thought those were all things on the 04' GTO.
Ok, I looked again, and the rear bumper is different with dual tips. Anyone know what 260 kW translates to?

the scoops and dual pipes are in regard to the gto.

just looks too much like a grand am gt scoop hood
this thing needs a re-design to get away from that grand am/grand prix look, plain and simple. Not saying that I don't like it, I do in a way, just needs its own look, something original and mean.

The scoops really mess with the lines of the car. I've always thought adding any set to the GTO would be a mistake. Hood scoops are not meant for the target market of this GTO: It's like mixing some WS6 and BMW together.

..
I think the objection is to, "cut & paste" engineering, that is, if this is even legit
Anyone else find it kind of funny that the GTO just had to have scoops now people dont like the way it looks with scoops?
