Default GTHO conundrum

There hase been a squillion posts about the possibility of a GT-HO but there are a lot of things to concider:

If the GTHO is made at all it will devalue the GT, GT-P & P1-3 GTHO so the current owners will whinge. (what a new one costs less than a 30 year old one)
If the GTHO is released but called something else e.g. GT-PP then those who want one just for the badge will whinge.

If the GTHO is an absolute animal as per its pedigree it will cause a media frenzy, be uninsurable, pull focus on performance vehicles and give credibility to the "scroobiesque zealots" maybe to the level of the government banning them as was done with guns.

If the GTHO is just a slightly quicker GT and get thrashed on the 400m by a new HSV then there will be screams from all directions of heresy and icon destruction.

If the GTHO is a limited run item then those who miss out will scream.
If the GTHO is a standard run item then others will scream.

If the GTHO is N/A it WILL get its **** handed to it by every F6 it comes across, as well as a lot of SV8s etc.
If the GTHO is SC or TC then the old school will scream heresy.

If the GTHO is a hard line track monster it will sell as well as the HSV Skaife GTS-R (1 unit sold)
If the GTHO is a luxobarge then once again heresy will be the cry.

I sure am glad I am not working for FPV marketing...........
