The new GTO didn't even come with hood scoops when released in 04 Every goat prior to that did, it was one of its distinguishing features some where functional some.

People can say a new GTO/manaro was/is faster but only when raced against a base GTO, Try a stock 1964 421 tri power or a XS block coded 67 (Also known as Ram Air 1) My dad's car/my car now was a mostly stock Intake/Holley 850/Headers 67 with M21 4 speed, never had AC, had 3.90 gears from the factory and a XS coded motor would routinely run 12.0-12.1 @ 116 factory cam/ internals/ no port and polishing.

did that motor come in that car? its about 3 seconds faster than a regular 64 gto
