they probably would have sold more, but you still can't get away from its body, no matter how many stripes you throw on it or holes you punch through the grill.

GTO sells more a year then 30k V8 Fbodies and Mustang Cobras.
Sales are not a problem. The car only had a 3 year life span in Austrailia.

People say they didn't sell, but I keep seeing them around. There's three alone in my neighborhood. If GM isn't renewing their contract with Holden, it seems obvious the next GTO is going to be built in the USA...or at least somewhere in North America.
