guys, the original gto was nothing but a big engine (bonneville) in a small and plain coupe (tempest), the current gto seems to be the epitime of this. My vote is that the car looks good, just my .02. Also, they're supposedly going to produce "the judge" again, which if I am correct was the flashier gto that everyone thinks of when they here "gto" I read that the judge will have the aforementioned 400hp.

It seems that they are turning the GTO into a modern rendition of a 1970 Chevelle SS454, not a retro Goat. Looks nice, maybe they will market the retro pieces to give that old Holden some personality outside of the used bar of soap look it has going for it now.

This is cool as well: http://www.lateral-g.net/sandlin/

Nice little page those guys have, killer cars no doubt. Don't understand the 8 turbos, but I don't think it was meant for ultimate power...just shock value when that hood goes up.
