there are plenty of years of firebirds that i think don't look as good as the GTO.
i also want to know how GM not offering another V8 rear drive effects people picking the GTO over the offerings from every other company. the GTO had strong sales against BMW, M-B, Acura, and a host of other companies. all companies with a more established customer base in the market segment, and the GTO took share from them.
i don't see why you insist on putting the GTO and the firebird/trans am in the same group. they are very different cars targeted at very different markets. the GTO was teh right car for the gap GM was trying to fill.
