| Now here's a GTO concept And it was made 2 years ago!
You'll have to forgive the over-the-top paint scheme, but it is a Hot Wheels after all. But if we're going with the modern retro ideas, this thing has it all. Long hood, long trunk, recessed back window...would you not drive something like this?
I guess I've just been a fan of Hot Wheels concepts of old cars. Just look at what the Camaro could have been.  |

| Hey I have both of those, haha, I think it looks good too.
But I always had assumed that it was based off that early 00 late 90s GTO concept, the orange one
Actually I really like this concept when it first came out. Now looking back, maybe changing the lines and getting rid of those cheap looking silver strips would make a really nice car
edit:I dont like the rims either

| its amazing the designs hotwheels comes out with. Some are mind blowing, some are gut wrenching. Either way doesnt it seem like a tremendous amount of work just for a little $.90 toy. Why dont these people work in the real industry? it seems like a waste of really good ideas some times. i guess other people have thought the same thing as me because of that truck they made and that one black car with two engines! remember? the ones that were perfect replicas of the toys but they were real cars!? those were badass! |

| Yea I saw that one Y2K.
I was going to buy it, but it had a weird paint scheme so I did, I hate it when they some awesome HotWheels and they ruin them with bad paint jobs.
I had been looking for a 65 Impala hot wheels, just to have one similar to my Impala, and I finally found one but the paint was hideous, I bought it thinking I was gonna paint it, but never got around to it. Its still in the original package
