I'd love to see something with the LS-6 or even the LS-2. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

For what it's worth, AW has also reported slow sales to-date on the Pontiac GTO, here.

Last time I visited a GM/Pontiac dealership, they had one GTO in the showroom and it was marked up $3,000 above the sticker price. So it was $37K or thereabouts. Hmm. I wonder if it's still there?

I'm actually of the opinion that a hardtop is just as structurally sound as a t-top.  Take a look at that picture - the internal supports are the exact same thing I have in my t-top car

Sure, a hardtop car has some sheet metal that is bolted/welded to the structural components.  But, does this sheet metal really enhance stiffness? 

To install Ts the two pieces of boxed steel above each side window is removed. Removing them does make make the chassis more flexible. Maybe you missed that from the photo. Note the boxed steel pieces are surely gone in the photo linked above.
