No, lets compare colors and how they sell. Thats the important issue . 390hp, thats not as much as 400 so it doesn't count. 6 or 8 cylinders. Yeah gotta be equal horsepower to count thats it. Maybe if Pontiac had started with a clean sheet of paper, designed their own car instead of trying to morph a GTO out of a Monaro we would be talking about something else.Ford did their own thing. Made a car that can appeal to a lot of different people, with a lot of choices on the option list, instead of Pontiacs decision to import a vehicle that can appeal to a very narrow group and compounded that mistake by making it look like a Cavalier. Then again maybe you are right, there is no comparison.
