That's not a new model - it is merely the result of someone vandalising their XR6.

not a new model, thats most likely custom. im assuming since the person put GT stripes on an XR6 woulda encouraged him to make his own unique name for it ie GT-6

Did you edit and add smilies? They weren't there when I first responded - hence I thought you were for real.

There's a citric acid one floating around Sydney - it has the same GT-6 side stripes but also has a GT body kit if I remember correctly (saw it at Eastern Creek a couple of years ago).

Lol at people not getting the sarcasm....

Would look alright if they lost the XR6 badges and put some decent wheels on it.
