I have had my car, multiple times called a GTO;
Of late, I don't often correct them.
I will admit that on occasion when looking up engine/maintenance parts for my Formula I have had the parts guy look up parts for a GTO - since I get less questions that way.
(they actually have the same 'base' drivetrain anyway.
One time I had mentioned that my car is a 1970 with a 1972 transmission, and the guy said my car was "bastardized" then he said some other crap that got me fuming mad...
Since that point, I give as little information as possible - and have found that sometimes in this age of completely ignorant parts counter people, that it's easiest if you give a vehicle application that yields the least number of question.
I can't wait to get my "GTO" back on the road... I've been really itching to drive it again...
