While yes...there is a similar look in the Pontiacs and the Fords and most everything else out today the GTO is just plain Sexy and Bad all together in one package. The new GTO is the most exciting Pontiac to come out since the '89 anniversary Trans Am with the Buick Grand National turbo V6. While I still love the WS6 Trans Am's and Firehawks the GTO is just plain sweet with it's slightly conservative appearance. It will be a sleeper to most non-Pontiac fans and will whip many disbelievers butt's for sure. Mods will respond very well and 400hp/400lb should be easily achieved...just open up the exhaust and intake! http://www.pontiac.com/pontiacjsp/gto/launch/
It sounds awesome now just imagine it with headers and a nice Flow Master exhaust

But hey...I'm a Pontiac man at heart anyway so I love it!
350HP, 365lb, 6-speed, Perf. Dif., True Duals and 0-60 in 5.3 sec not to shabby for a big heavy car
