The concept GTO pays homage to Pontiac's memorable muscle car of the 1960s and 70s. GTO styling cues include a side profile with hints of the famous "Coke bottle" look introduced on mid- to late-60s' models. The shape of the rear quarter windows is reminiscent of 1968-69 GTOs. A hood-mounted tachometer pod like the one that first appeared in 1967 is part of the package. However, the large, 19-in.-diameter front wheels, 20-in. rear wheels, and ultra-low profile, 40-series tires are a world apart from the 14-in. bias-ply US Royal Red Line tires included in the original GTO option package. The car's computer-generated interior uses high-tech materials such as aluminum, and the center section of the dashboard is an extension of the hood and painted to match.
