The 1973 GTO was one of the fastest cars of 1973.

The 1974 GTO was one of the fastest cars of 1974.

Isn't that GTO tradition?

Actually IIRC the fastest 1973 American vehicle was the Chevy C10 454 4-spd like the one used in The Driver (1978) movie with Ryan Oneil http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077474/

As a kid I remember Hot Rod Magazine announcement of The 454 Chevy Truck as the fastest 1973 created quite a stir in the media and gear head public.

BTT 1974 GTOs: Anyone can flame any year of any make or model...obviously.

This is a sad but true same old BS debate...flame on and disrespect. Who cares if you don't like a '74? Really? Just pass and move on.
