SUUURE...and I suppose if there had been a gap of 30 years with no production cars in between your '70 and the original '64 everyone would have instantly recognized it as a goat. Right. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Rab: Once again you prove my observation that those who challenge GMs attempt of reviving the GTO on a Monaro platform with generic designing are percieved as not as "knowledgeable" as those who embrace it. Given the well documented negative reaction to the introduction of the 04 it was easily ascertained that the core of the negativity was found in the lack of retro cues. As far as a 30 yr. gap between the my 70 and the original 64: That didn't happen, the GTO went on to establish itself as a legendary musclecar so your supposition has no merit. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Of course Rabon's supposition has merit. Just because it didn't happen doesn't stop the scenerio from being set. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Uhhh, Ok. Nobody is saying it's wrong to set a scenario no matter how ridiculous or inapplicable. Make us another one Rab.
