I wouldn't say they were ugly, on the other hand I wouldn't say they were drop dead gorgeous either. Their quality may be in the engine, drive train, and fit and finish but in the end no one really remembers what they look like.

+1, although is was based of the Tempest, LeMans was later. It looks like all the other Pontiacs out there, just like the original... deserves the GTO name just as much as any other one. It doesn't have to be retro to be right! My best friend has an onyx black '05, its sexy and subtly agressive, especially at night. I'd own one in a heartbeat.

the car does look "GTO" worthly, looks more like a beefed up neon.
