I think the new GTO is a good replacement for the F-Body, better than the SSR Chevy was gonna replace the Camaro with. A 300-hp rear-drive Grand Prix is perfect, even if only 18,000 are made in '04.

This isn't the new GTO, but it is a wicked car none the less. It is a new coupe based on the basic monaro platform. It has two sets of twin pipes, two hood vents, a carbon fibre bonnet and a C5R, 7.0 litre, 427 cubic inch engine. It's the HRT 427 coupe.(HRT-Holden Racing Team)
Basically it's 100kg's (200+lbs) lighter than a standard Monaro but with a bigger engine.

But... and this is the REAL news... did you guys know that they are coming out with 2 engines on the GTO? A 360HP base model and the 415HP LS6 from the Z06!
Take that and smoke a few Cobras just for fun!
