This is a 2006 Next Gen GTO sketch. It was made by Marc Senger in October of 2004. He based the sketch on a 4-door Holden Torana concept car which was first seen at the Australian International Motor Show in Sydney on 10/7/04. Marc wants some feedback on his design, "Hello. I'm an industrial designer in Detroit and I came cross your site while doing research. Being a GTO enthusiast, I thought you might get a kick out of a sketch I based on the recent Holden Torana show car. The new design has the same wheelbase, but is now a 2 door with a unique roofline, front and rear fascias, new rocker extensions, and specific ram-air hood. Any input/critique is welcome. I only work for an automotive supplier, but love doing this in my spare time. Thanks!" Feel free to leave your comments in the "comments" section, below.
In the past, Marc has participated in a school design assignment for Detroit’s Center for Creative Studies-College of Art and Design (CCS). He and other students redesigned the Hummer as an exercise. He went to Southfield, Michigan to unveil his work at the 12th annual vehicle concept unveiling sponsored by American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI). His version of the Hummer featured a turbine engine. He received some positive press for his efforts, including a December 2000 writeup in Ward's Auto World. Here's another design he did which you might also like.

This is brilliant. Larry Williams of Illinois shows us his ideas on the next GTO design. He included a hardtop version and a convertible version. Larry says, "I've based my design on the current platform, keeping the same overall proportions. Instead of a rounded look though, I've used strong influences from the '66-67 GTO. Hope you enjoy." What do you think of Larry's work? Tell us by responding with a comment below. Do you have any ideas of what future GTOs should look like? If so, draw it up and send it in.

Anthem Motors in Phoenix Arizona is offering this awesome GTO RA6 Styling and Performance package on the 2006 GTO. This was our Picture Of The Week for 11/26/06. Compare this shot to the original orange 2004 GTO Woodward concept car. The staff at Anthem Motors explains, "For over two years people have been begging for the GTO Ram Air 6 concept from the 2004 Woodward Dream Cruise to be built. The wait is over! Anthem Motors debuted the GTO RA6 at the 2006 SEMA Show, a car that is heavily inspired by the concept. The RA6 received GM's Best Exterior Design award at SEMA and was signed by the concept's designer, Kip Wasenko during the SEMA debut. A limited number of RA6's will hit the streets through select Pontiac dealers with performance packages ranging from 435hp to 1000hp, brakes from the C6 Z06 Corvette and a complete Pedders suspension system."
