That's what I have felt all along as well. But, apparently from the articles I've been reading online today, a big reason they cite the car not selling as well as GM wanted was because of the styling. But a lot of people thought putting the hood scoops on and spliting the exhaust boosted sales, but they said GTO sales for the '05s were actually down 15% overall from the '04s. Maybe it was just bad timming.
