OK Tripower, you got me...

My point is that it is not a foregone conclusion that the Pontiac GTO name HAD to be reused. Bring the car, yes... Just leave the GTO name on the shelf for a while longer... That in and of itself backfired as a marketing trick... It was not a draw to most of the buyers, and angered many of us "old School" types. Overall it went negative as a strategy.

I agree 100%. I wish they had called it something else. IMHO, the new one is the perfect Grand Prix or even Grand Am. I still bought one, since it's really a nice car.

I'm pretty sure when it comes to this car, you and I could post under each others user names and no one would know the difference.

Npw why couldn't they taken the pipes out of seperate sides? That's my point.

You mean the trunk mounted gas tank? It looks plenty clear to me, but I will look at a friend of mine's again this week...
