I do think GM will build another GN and GNX because they filed patents for the name recently.

The 04-06 GTO was a car that very much lived up to the name in every aspect but one. It didn't appease the moron baby boomers. Everyone wanted a retro muscle car, similar to what we Camaro lovers got with the 5th gen. Instead, they got a car that looked like a Pontiac Grand Prix.
The GTO was a great looking car, had all the power you really needed (save for that terrible A4 transmission), and is still a well sought after car even now.
