I think part of the reason they're trying to make it appear "ricey" is because GM is trying desperately to attract a younger audience than the F-body did... Supposidly part of the reason the Mustang had always outsold the Camaro/Firebird, is because while the Mustang was constantly attracting the interest of new blood, the Camaro and Firebird pretty much had the same following since it originated in the late 60's. So I think what is happening with this GTO, and what seems to be a jab at this "New age" style is an attempt to attract a younger audience. Only problem is GM, to my knowledge, does not offer a V6 GTO, which means as long as the damn thing is priced as much as a Cobra, they're going to have a hard time attracting that younger audience.
