the GTO sold well, not amazing, but well... it also will be coming over as a replacement for a car, however, they can only produce 20K units a year. which is NOTHING... which makes some wonder wtf this car will actually be.

holy hell.. that's HOT!
it reminds me of the the MG SV which was testdriven in TopGear...
it also reminds me of a Vauxhall for some reason... even though I am not very familiar with it.

edit: upon further review, it's not that hot. the side profile looks like the current Impala (no good), and the rear looks like the Mitsubishi Galant (not a bad thing though)

Get rid of the Bonneville (if they haven't already) and replace it with this!

edit: oops, the Bonneville's already gone, and I take it the Grand Prix is next on the chopping block...

When did GM ever try to hide the fact that the GTO was anything but a rebadged Holden?
