A Bonneville being mistaken as a GTO........ that'* pretty sad.
No disrespect to the Bonneville or the GTO.... but they are two VERY different classes of vehicles IMHO.

Eh, its only natural that someone who knows nothing about cars would confuse a GTO with a SSEi. They think since the SSEi is fast that it must be a GTO.

Ur mom thought a 96 was a GTO? She might need her noggin checked out. 
j/k
SSEi != fast, The GTO is in a totally different class of handling, fit and finish, and focus. A Bonnie can't touch it IMO.
