I dont agree. Looks are subjective, and alot of people, me included, actually really liked the GTO. Fact of the matter is, GM followed the same exact formula with the GTO as they did the first time around- big engine in family car. The first GTO's were Tempest Lemans with a 389 shoved under the hood and some badges slapped on. People now days just don't want to buy the sleeper look, so it failed.
Do you think the new Camaro has the "sleeper" look? I owned a 68 GTO but not a new one that is much faster. I think looks are important, and not just in women.
