I second this! It's RWD! Finally... I know the GTO is nice and all, but it still looks like a Grand Prix... The G8 looks much different from the GTO, but its still RWD!

Yep it is its replacement. Pontiac will still get a car that will be based on the same platform as the new camaro though, either a GTO or Firebird.

Lets get back on topic though >

Screw the GTO for now, they already had their chance at it and plus their still loads you can find for relatively cheap. A Firebird would be more fitting, what a Camaro with out its T/A cousin?

You, are a stupid little ricer. Maybe you aught to learn up on the Firebird and Camaro's history, then you'll see my point. And stop dissin' the GTO, and go away now.

YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEAAAAAHHHH GTO!
