However, they could only use an existing car and existing parts off the self.

    Well a surprise cam to Pontiac when the first Tempest with the "GTO package option" was introduced to the public and it sold out. This sell out happened two years straight 64 & 65 so in 66 Pontiac decided to have the GTO as it own car not just a package option.

    So to say that about the 64 & 65 Le Mans is well "horseshit"

    that totally went right over your head, didn't it?

    listen, the 60's/70's goat was about as true to the letters "GTO" as the 80's le mans hatchback was true to its predecessor; which is to say...NOT AT ALL.

    likewise, the letters GT-R are associated (specifically) with nissan sports cars, but in general, with AWD TT 6's. a RWD mustang isn't even close to the same ball park. might as well slap a goddamn "vtec" sticker on the mustang while they're at it.

    I guess it did but how was I suppose to know what years you where refering to from this:

    seriously, the only way that ford could LEGITIMATELY call that a GT-R would be if it had the drivetrain from the 2010 taurus sho. period.
    Because when the GTO was birthed well, it was a souped up Tempest / Le Mans......anyways, knowing what you are talking about now I would agree. Kinda like Dodge throwing "Shelby" on the 80's Daytona's while they still had rights to do so.

    The first Nissan to wear the letters GT-R was an N/A RWD sedan. But pretty much agree with the rest.

    No, I am sure I'd still laugh heartily. I've seen much worse than your parade accident.
