Wasn't the original GTO significant because it mated exceptional power with a standard, midsized body? Isn't that the heritage of the GTO icon?

Now we have a plain jane midsized sedan (country of manufacture is unimportant in today's global village) with a serious performance motor coming out as a GTO and there is dissent?

Why?

Because it's not all swoopy and raced out? Was the 1964 swoopy and raced out? Hell, no! it had a badge and a killer motor and that was what made it so cool.

I wish that all of those folks who feel that flaming chickens and flashy scoops are critical to a GTO would take a long look at the first ones out that made the Goat a legend.

Nuff said. When is the convertible coming out?
