This looks awesome, 10x better than the 04 GTO. 500HP 6.3L is nice too

Maybe SVT is holding back the Cobra until they see what the Chrager SRT-8 and 06 GTO are like. Either way the next 3-4 years are going to be good for us RWD V8 fans

 

[CatmanJJ]

That does look a heck of a lot better.

 

[CarrollShelby]

Nice baby...

 

[Reimann]

Is that suppose to the be the 2005 GTO or a bodykit or what?

 

[admdavs]

Though I am not a fan of many things non-Ford, that GTO modified does look pretty damn sweet. Hey at least I'm commenting on an American car- though it is made if freakin' Australia-

Looks good, doubt GM will ever let it see production.

 

[Slapyo]

wow, that car looks awesome. ford needs to hurry up and get some stuff out on the 06 cobra. they should atleast give us some hints.

 

[stang976]

god damn that thing looks sweet for a GM.

Yep, the cooler the car the less likely it will ever be build.

No the '05 looks more like the autocross GTO from SEMA, It is also going to have some Holden HSV bofy kit/GFX/spoilers and 18" rims avalible.

This may be a sneek peak at the '06 body, but since the 2007/8 will be all new I don't know if they will put the investment into the current generation GTO.

Yep, the cooler the car the less likely it will ever be build.

unfortunatly that seems to be true, and not just for GM. I'd love a FR500, Super Stalion, Sunoco Camaro, Pontiac G8, or Dodge Viper Carbon.

 

[BlueOvalStangGT]

that thing is sweet!

 

[szer0]

That looks excellent. Would be awesome if it actually looked like that.

 

[BonezGT]

Nice.....thats the way the GTO should have looked in the first place.

 

[brandon_lawson7]

it looks a lot like that customized GTO in "the last ride" on USA.....damn thats sweet!

 

[mransr]

you guys really like that looks like a gaint Accord with a body kit to me...way too many scoops and gills and grills for my taste...

 

[SVTdriver]

Unfortunately that has way too much style and power for GM to build. Otherwise very nice.

 

[holler]

looks like a car kit car compared to say the 2005 mustang concept... and what's up with the exhaust...?

 

[GelatiCruiser]

That's a fuggin' sweet power plant. The exterior is decent. That's how the GTO SHOULD have looked in the first place....

I like it. It is not as gilly as a Saleen Mustang. People complain when a car is too plain and they complain when it has some styling to it. Personally, I like some styling. Ricers with there 3 foot wings and can opener bumpers are over the top but I think this is nice and tasteful.

 

[Z28Marcus]

Great googly moggly... that thing this is .

GM really is starting to get their RWD crap together finally.... just as people were starting to give up hope. First the Caddy CTS-V (not keen on styling, but can't argue with the performance). Then the upcomming 500 HP CTS-Super V which looks better than than the CTS-V due to the body mods. And now the GTO getting a kick in the pants it seems. These cars are all gonna cost upwards of 50 grand, so there's still a slot oppen for the Camaro to come back to in the 20 - 35 grand range, depending on engine choice and other options.

Woooot!
