why can’t GTO and GP be on the same platform, and the GP be the sedan model? Sort of like the Impala and Monte Carlo are “the same” ---

Yes. And why can’t there be a V6 model? To make it a worthwhile adventure? Like the Mustang? ---

Rumor had it that it would be the Bonneville (or to fit current naming - G8) replacement. Then again, who knows with GM anymore if they can afford to make it in a US version… ---

If it ever does make it here expect that Pontiac “touch”. Cheap shitty interiors full of redundant plastic parts, And expect the front fascia to be shitted up with those horrible pontiac grills in the front, and those 5yr old GP foglights they dug out of the leftover parts bin similar to the solstice… _sigh_ if only we got the Opel versions of the Sky/Solstice. The Aussie Specs look great though… "GTS highlights - HSV enhanced LS2 6 Litre V8 (307kW and 550Nm) - Upgraded M10 version Tremec T56 six-speed manual - Optional 6L80 E six-speed automatic transmission - HSV Premium Four-Piston Brake System - HSV ‘Sports Performance’ body styling - GTS specific body accenting - Unique LED rear lamps - 20-inch alloy wheels - Unique three-gauge dash-top binnacle - Leather ‘Performance’ suede seats - Optional ‘Red Hot’ trim (no-cost) - ESC – Electronic Stability Control - MRC – Magnetic Ride Control - Unique HSV instrument cluster and steering wheel - Front, side and curtain air bags – six in total" ---
