All of these cars need to be considered in context.

Time period.

Market targetted

Price point

So, for the price, target market, and time period, the original Pontiac GTO was a real winner.

For other reasons, the recent GTO was not. However, comparing a recent GTO to a Box certainly is out of context. It was a large coupe with an very large engine.

Not exactly a Box competitor.

The early reviews on the Pontiac G8 are very positive. Will be interesting to see how it sells.
