GM Attends to Important Business - Hood Scoops!
Pontiac to add hood scoops on 2005 model GTO
By RICHARD TRUETT | Automotive News
DETROIT -- The 2005 Pontiac GTO will be restyled to include hood scoops, General Motors sources said.
The 2004 model GTO, which does not have hood scoops, has prompted GTO fans to write letters to GM asking the automaker to bring back the scoops that were on the original 1964 GTO. The scoops enhanced the car's performance image.
Hood scoops can help cool the engine or force air into the motor. It is unclear if the scoops will be functional or decorative.
The new GTO is a rear-wheel-drive high-performance coupe with a 5.7-liter engine derived from the Chevrolet Corvette. Pontiac officials say the car's acceleration, handling and braking will be the best ever in a GTO.
