[QUOTE="Travis Munday, post: 564482, member: 52914"] The original GTO looked like a LeMans. The 'Cuda looked like a Barracuda. So what if the new GTO looks like a Grand Prix, it falls right in line with history. You've got a nice, sedate, small car with a small engine. Then comes along a car very similar looking, but with a huge motor and a mean exhuast note. Ford simply went with the "Me Too" route with the styling of the new Mustang. "Hey, everyone else has a retro looking high volume model, why not us?" A modern Vette looks nothing like the '53. The '53 Vette didn't have a V8 in it either. So what? Although a modern Vette with metal stone guards would be soemthing else. Many would consider the greatest Corvette ever made, non limited production models excluded, to be the '67 427 FI. The C6 looks nothing like that car. Why should it? Who says the only way to have a performance car these days is to look like something that's already been done before? Oh....right. [/QUOTE]
