FURTHERMORE ( jeez, I hope he doesn't read this ) he went on to say if somebody came in and said : " Look, I know these cars aren't moving. Anybody who knows anything about a GTO knows this is little more than a re-badged Monaro. The gig is up. So, what is your rock bottom price?"...would have a pretty good shot at walking out the door with a "new" 2004 GTO around 18-21k depending on color, etc. For what it's worth.

Wrong. GM targeted the car at BMW buyers who are from 30-45years old and made $50K+. It even said so on GM's internal website.
