whoa. that looks pretty tight

 

insurance can bite me. it is basically black mail as far as i am concerned... "protection money" you have to buy it but they never hold up their end of the bargain when you need it.

That is pretty cool. GM is in trouble

 

I can't believe I read the whole thing...

Must now attempt to say something pertinent to the two or three different topics this thread has covered.

1. That concept is hideous, retro is a good idea for Ford because there old designs did not suck.

2. He who lives on hope dies of starvation = sutpid F-body owners

3. The GTO sucks, ugly, cost too much. How in the heck is it a halo when its identical to every other car made by pontiac.

4. Kev's ps skills are teh win.

5. Link to the charger concept?

 

Charger Concept Car

Front View

Heres the Charger concept (sorry I didn't put it up before), odds are though, the 2006 Charger will look nothing like this...

 

Thanks

Oh yeah I think I have seen that before. It's nice... I think the problem with dodge is that they are milking their brand recognizability to much. The four section grill the headlights are almost too visually arresting. The neon/stratus/ that concept look that same, as well as the trucks.

No it probably won't look like that. wonder does it go real fast?

 

the retro bashing from f-body fans is probably going to start dying down, as it seems they now believe that they have multiple credible sources saying that in 2008 the camaro will return looking basically like the 1st gen.

 

Good. It looks like a 4-Door Corvette with Dodge styling smacked on.

 

i think it looked real good
id buy if i had the $$

always did prefer dodge to GM anyway

 

For the people saying it is ok to make the GTO look boring and sedate need to really think about what they are saying. What would happen if the Mustang or Corvette were cancelled, making it a legendary status, as they are now hard to come by. Then, after years of craving and begging the car finally comes out and it looks like this. If the corvetter ever looked like this Chevy would never recover. Neither would ford if the Stang looked like this. I mean look at it. It looks like it could be any car, by any company. It totally recalls visions of Chevy Luminas, four-door cavaliers, any of the old style bonevilles. This car is lame as heck. Also, for people saying that they just did this to get to market sooner and that a better product is around the corner, I ask... What looming danger over the shoulder of GM was forcing this car to come to market as soon as possible??? It's not as if they needed it. And for wanting it to be a "flagship," "halo" or some other buzzword for the most popular and cool car of the brand, I ask again. What would happen if this were the Ford GT supercar, the Chevy Corvette, Porsche 911, or Jag XK???? People would lose their minds. Yet, GM retains that hey, "this is a new interpretation of the older car," and that "a new market is being saught after by this car." What new market??? The only markets out there are boring 4-doors, SUVs, crossovers, sportscars, and the new import/tuner crowd. This thing fits into none of them nicely, unless you blend together categories. Any person that claims this car is ok and respects GM/Lutz/Pontiac or themselves should be banned from speaking about cars ever again.

 

Actually, GM really did need to fill the void between the Monte Carlo SS and the Corvette with some kind of muscle/pony car.

 

So you're saying that an overpriced, limited production, import filled this void? Methinks not.

 

The Monte SS???????

I can't say much I considered it... Before I knew anything about cars. And that all Chevy SS packages are useless and driving on the wrong wheels.

GTo and Gm as a whole Suck. That is all.

PS: Just saying GTO now makes me cringe.

 

My source tells me it will be a bit more boxier than that car, it will have more of a blunt front end.. ala 300/magnum. It will have a fastback roofline and wide rear quarters.

 

indeed. It is based on the 300/magnum cars, so I guarantee it will not look like this.

 

I would buy the GTP before the GTO, IMO. I think it looks better and man, those fluff features are fun!

 

To them, yes.

And the Monte Carlo SS, before the GTO introduction, was the most powerful non-Corvette car you could get from GM after the F-bodies died.

 

I would prefer to drive my Mustang II over the new GTO anyday.

 

hehehe...so would i (if i had one)
