I own a 1966 Pontiac tri-power GTO. I previously owned 1965 and 1969 GTOs.

Thirty years after the demise of the 1974 GTO GM decides to bring back the GTO in the form of a Dodge Neon lookalike with a Chevy engine and a $30,000.00 + price tag!

A better idea would have been to utilize the Grand Prix coupe body (which is a Pontiac), rear wheel drive (no stranger to NASCAR Grand Prixs), hood scoops, Hurst shifter, real wood dash, Hi-per V-8, and no "GTO" decals on the fenders.
