Im starting to get tired of that car company, all of their new cars coming out look almost exactly the same, its like their designers just gave up and based all of their cars off one base design. The GTO is just a damn stretched out Grand Prix with a Corevette engine and a crap load of restrictors on the engine.

Personally, I don't really think the GTO looks like the Grand Prix. Maybe a bit like the last gen, but not the current one. Then theres the Vibe and Aztec, which also look completely different. I'm not sayin all those look good or even that I like them, just that they don't seem all that similar to me. Then you have the Soltice on the horizon, which should be prety sweet.

I agree that all the current cars are ugly, Gran prix used to look fairly good, but now it has been uglified. The G6 or whatever is decent i guess. Vibrator and asstec are just tacky. I don't care much for the styling of the solstice either.

Pontiac's lineup looks equaly as similar as the late 90's escort,contour,taurus family.

Very doubtful...
All 3 are from 1998

Contour Vs. Escort, Contour has the nicer headlights, and the Chrome Oval around the grill, and has a lining in the grill, Escort doesnt...
The taurus has the Silver stripe on it..
Escort has no sail panel either, Contour does have it, Taurus doesnt...
Escort: Antenna on roof, Taurus on driver side on rear of car, Contour: on passenger side of rear of vechile...
Its a close call tho

None of that matters. I'm sure if you want we can get some Pontiac people in here to list of the differances from each of their cars. I mistake Escorts for Contours (from a distance) quite often.
