That pic shows why PMD needs new nose treatments. They round off too much at the top of the nose at the hood line. They should square them up more, like the late 60s cars. Or something. That same nose is on all the cars, and I think is a big reason the GTO looks kind of blah/too much like a GP-GA-etc.

Front end looks like a grand am.
However, I like it.  I also like the GTO. But they really need to differentiate it a bit more.

then how can you not see the resemblance? benz- an E and S class look more alike then a G6 and a GTO. thats my opinion though. if you dont feel that way you can kiss my ass (not literally, i would never wish that upon anyone)

S class = 1 piece headlights, maybe if you said C and E but even still the E still has the wanna-be-2nd-gen-camaro seperate lights while the C has basically a mix of S class and E class headlights

I believe that was on the cover of Motor Trend. Not bad looking, but looks too much like a tuner car to be called Grand Prix... yet I don't like the Gx names either. But everything I keep hearing says there's going to be a new GTO to share the same platform as Camaro. Is Pontiac going to have both these cars? Would be pretty cool!

There is a write up in the new C&D. They said Impala SS more than once. I'll see if I can scan it.
