I think that you guys are missing the point. If you follow the original GTOs design and conception its point was to stop the decline of PMD. Pontiac just couldnt compete back then with GM saying no speedy cars no racing and such. but a genius named Delorean came up with the idea of putting a 389 in the body of a lemans and thus the great one was born.
now I dont like the GTO name appearing on what is basically a Neon (Per Se) on Steroids but pontiac is doing the same thing that they did in the creation of the great one. now while it is dismaying to think about, pontiac just cant compete these days. Kids want foreign and crap like that in not that many years the hobby of restoring old ponchos will die if we dont start putting the hobby in young peoples minds.

I think you're missing the point. The last year of the GTO WAS a chevy nova with different accents. It wasn't the same chassis like the GTO and Chevelles were at first.
