I almost forgot to mention this earlier...what is the deal with no manual transmission for the GTO? How do you figure that? My uncle owns a '70 GTO with 4 ON THE FLOOR that is kept in climate controlled storage. There's no way in hell GM can offer a vehicle with performance heritage like the GTO without an available 6speed MANUAL like there was on the last Holden Manaro/GTO. Also, if Pontiac were smart, the G8 would truely be able to compete with BMW's if they gave it an available 6speed MANUAL.
