Went to my parents near Tampa over the weekend and was asked twice while getting gas if my car was a GTO. Now I'd like to have a GTO, but don't think the two cars look at all alike. Personnally, I like the Grand Prix body style much better.

Hehe I don't think GP's are too common in Fla for some reason. Could hardly spot any while I was down there last year. Maybe thats why people think its a GTO.

proof positive that a good looking GP coupe still has more visual style than the new Goat...add that to the fact that you cant get a GP coupe at all from your local dealer and the myths and urban legends begin to form laugh

Yeah I would never be caught dead in an ugly GTO.


At least in my GTO the correct wheels are powering the vehicle :p
