Bob Lutz Of Pontiac...YOUR A ING IDIOT!!

Im Sorry but Im fed up with the Morano C7... oops.. i mean GTO Its absolute BULLSHIT. I hope GM ing goes bankrupt. The new "GTO" is a ing rip-off of an Australian Car; the Holden/Vauxhall Morano C7/VXR.
Of course because GM is full of a bunch of old timers who dont know what the meaning of a "retro remake" is they just take a car that is considered a HOT ROD in Britain and start making them in Canada, add some body filler slap a GTO emblem on it, drop a 6.0 in it and BOOM.. Ladies and Gentlemen of North America, GM and its qualified associates have come up with this al new never before seen GTO. Anyone feel the same way???

I hope you didn't just figure that out. It has been a well known fact that they were using the holden for the new GTO for well over a year now.

GM Company SUCKS. Even the 93-02 F-body cars were *** ugly, over priced, single exaust and too heavy. Camaros are kids cars, not a gap between a truck and a Vette. GM will go bankrupt. DCX is killing ford and GM as I type this.

when you figure out next week that the GTO has no significant importance to us, since it is not coming to Canada, perhaps you will simmer down...

btw...

everyone knew
everyone looked forward to it

but same as the evo mitsu it didn't pass bumper regulations...

GM should take a lesson from Chrysler when it comes to retro cars... so far their pathetic attempts have backfired pretty bad...

Vauxhall is owned by GM. Holden/Vauxhall Morano C7/VXR is a GM. Its their product they can do whatever the they want, but i still think its ing ugly and nothing like the original GTO.

Wow this is one of the dumbest threads ever in the entire TSR/GTASR/TSR boards ever Almost all automotible manufacturers have been sharing platforms between models for many decades. Do you really think your Civic and your EL are completely different cars? How is a person getting ripped off? That statement doesn't even make sense to what you are arguing for.

brianb has a spectacular aura aboutbrianb has a spectacular aura about
gto

I think the GTO is a decent car, probably one of the better ones pontiac has now. It's RWD and has good power and there is a lot of aftermarket support for those motors. To bad its not available here. Its not as cool as the original but its a decent car. If lutz didnt have the idea then ponitiac wouldnt have any RWD cars now.
