Yes they do look better...and they do perform. I would just like to see GM
step up and do something special with it. Look what our options are from
them for a V8, rear wheel car - a truck (have a '04 Tahoe), Corvette (a lot
of money), GTO, and a Cadillac CTS-V (I drove a friend's CTS-V and it
rocked, but again a lot of money).
My family will be in the market for a new ride sometime soon ('bout time to
get rid of the DeVille - the "old man car") and I'm just not seeing anything
on the GM side that fits the bill.

I don't think any offense was taken,Ron. The 04 GTO was kinda bland. Don't
the 05 models have the new scooped hood?
The new 400hp LS2 engine doesn't hurt anything,either.
