You know, I would buy it with the current styling if I needed a new car. Have ridden in a few of the "new GTO" and they are nice cars. The Monaro is a well proven and respected platform. In any event, I like them a lot better than the new Mustangs after riding in a couple of those.
My beef is .... that Pontiac should not have used the GTO name on the car. Seems like a cheap attempt to boost sales IMO. And the sales numbers agree with me. When 1st released the new GTO did not sell well at all. Nobody who was into GTOs liked it. But once a few hit the streets, and the reviewers got to really drive the cars, they started selling pretty well.
