The GTO took a very popular Monaro coupe and brought it here with a few modifications.
If GM were to make it Retro, it would cost GM millions of dollars and we would probably have seen the GTO probably around last year. Problem is, that the VY/VZ chassis wasnt making it past 06.
So GM took a great performance coupe, gave it twin kidney's and dropped it off in America.
The GTO was the direction that Pontiac wanted to go. Maybe not design wise, but in execution wise, yes. G8 carries the same execution.
