I won't really miss any on that list, except maybe the GTO. I do love american muscle cars (and fast cars in general, american or foreign), and even though I never owed a GTO, they are the kind of car you like to see roll by, just to hear the exhaust burble. It was a great car in concept, but needed a more in your face/radical approach, than looking like something run-of-the-mill from Oldsmobile. Something that elicited raw emotion and got your blood boiling at just the mere sight. I mean, look at the Solstice/Sky cars! They are flying off showrooms because of the unique design and reasonable pricing! And, with gas near (or at, depending on where you are) $4/gallon, the GTO just doesn't command a market, except with all but the purists (shich apparently there aren't many). Also, I think the pricing should have stayed in the mid to upper $20s. All JMO.... I will still miss it.... If anything though, given the limited production run, it should make the car quite the classic in years to come.
