Now something more like this:
++1 That is class the judge destroyed what the GTO had become and what it should be.... The judge turned it into nothing more then a larger fancy camaro imo although this car shown here is true class and true muscle. That right there is one hell of an icon IMO.

I always thought it somewhat ironic that many panned the '04-'06 GTO as being too plain, yet that is exactly what the original was, if not even more so. Perhaps Pontiac was a bit too true to the GTO's heritage for some folks. It was the '66-'67 models that I thought hit the sweet spot, styling-wise -- possessing just the right amount of visual interesting without yet becoming a rolling parody of itself like the Judge.

65, 69-70 GTOs are some of my dream cars.

Personally the new GTO IMO was a perfect car (if i could have put the original nose and tail back on it) with only one flaw...I don't own one hehehe

yea i think it would be great if they did a retro styled car. I havent liked the new GTO's for a while now, recently they have reminded me of ricers.
