My point exactly. Had GM priced the 2004 GTO with that in mind and with a few "soulful" retro cues then it would have fared much better. Ignoring the traditional GTO consumer as Lutz so indicated was both insulting and marketing suicide. Catering towards the younger tuner crowd ( that doesn't have any money to buy one anyways ) , then proclaiming that the real market was the 100k + earner market
( yeah right Bob...I don't know any of my MBZ / BMW / JAG collegues that are salivating to get their hands on a Pontiac ) is pure bullsh*t. C'mon GM, just say what it is and price it accordingly. There's plenty of people who wouldn't mind having a 400hp grocery getter in their stable that's not going to break their bank account.
