How many people here have actually riden in, or driven the new GTO? I, for one, have. That is a sleeping beast(just like '64). I am a Mustang lover, fully supporting the Cobra's new supercharged apparel, but you have to love that deep, throaty, naturally aspirated V8. The manual tranny in the car shifted like butter(even not being aquainted with the layout or clutch). The powerband never fell out, and it stuck to the asphalt like glue. The seats were practical yet well bolstered for racing. I had my doubts about this car, but not any longer! As much as I love my Fords and Mustangs, I would have to think twice if I had 35 g's in my pocket. Favorite muscle car-'69 Mustang Boss 429

the new GTO is actually a Holden (Australian company) Manaro with Pontiac badges on it. Holden is apart of GM but they design and make thier own cars. The Manaro has been out in Australia and New Zealand for about four years now. |

Most people believe that the muscle car years didn't start untill the Tempest GTO, in 64. Also, most people believe that 10 years later, the muscle car was effectively dead. I am one of those people.

Early 70's muscle cars got smaller. duster 340, nova 350. They died with the advent of catalytic converters, air pumps, and 2.45 rear ends. |
