Unless GM starts with a clean slate there will be no GTO in 07 or thereafter for that matter. At best it will be an option to another model. The current format may be indeed what the GTO would have evolved to ( except for the Rosanne Barr inspired hind quarters! ) had it stayed in production from '74, but clearly shortcuts were taken to get this car to production early.Beavis and Lutzhead sealed the GTOs fate by melding a pudgey import with a GTO name plate. Having a Mitsubishi inspired 4 door 2008 isn't going to help matters any either.
