The new 2005, will have hood scoops and dual exhaust and stuff. My question to you guys is. I know they are making a autocross body. Well Ive seen 3 Different Body styles, Front Lips, backend and fender/rocker scoops. Are these canna be innchangable, or can you pick a style and get it? Cause I saw the Woodward Dream Cruise GTO, and those Scoops on the Back Fenders, infront of the rear tires, looked really nice, it completely broke up that long fender look.
This is the body style I like but I dont see it advertised very much.

Don't see it advertised much? Um, that's because it's currently not something you can buy. The GTO Ram Air VI (that's what you posted a pic of) was a one-off concept car for some executive. It's been discussed to death on this forum. Use that name or "woodward concept" and you'll likely find all kinds of posts about it.
And the autocross kit is not a "body" as you described it. It is: a different spoiler, a different exhaust, different nose scoops (not hood, I mean the very nose of the car), different side sills, different lower front fascia, and maybe/maybe not different wheels (the wheels may or may not be a separate option, there's debate about this).

damn the ram air VI looks the best, I think. Hmm Oh well. Thanks for the info. I like the rear valance on the VI model, and the Grille..=\ sigh, concepts are always better than production stuff..lazy union workers ;)
I do really dig the subtleness of the rear spoiler. I wonder if something like that would just bolt up to the existing bolt locations. I'm sure the side pieces would have to. But if it was a one piece that hugged the quarters like the stock one, that would be what I would want.

Id be happy with just the hood and the front end. Slap those on a regular 04
or 05 gto with the rksport spoiler :) Thatd be nice. Aftermarket companies need
to make atleast a hood like that!

I like the whole thing. To me, what stopped me from buying an 04 was the long fenders in the back, the car looked extremely long, and had small wheels. When i heard they were gonna add 18in wheels(deleted), I was in good spirits again, The body style was sweet as hell. (Not comming out apparently, I hope so tho) I mean atleast make it an option, break up that long back end. and ggive me some tred under that body. But what do I know, Im just a Consumer *****..\

I never thought the fenders were too long but I do agree that the wheels look small in the rear due to the shallow wheel wells. I wish they did something a little different there.
