Hell yes, GT ute would be a winner |

Yes but not a lot, ute buyers are mostly more about performance than badges |

Maybe, but it will probably just be the XR8/Pursuit buyers anyway |

No, it is the design (lack of IRS/body) that is the problem not the badge |

No, XR8 and Pursuit are the Falcon Ute names, GT has no heritage here |

Burn the witch, GTs must always be sedans (well apart from the hardtops) |

To me the GT name does not apply to a ute, GT stands for Grand Touring and in the automotive world the idea of touring does not apply to commercial vehicles.
Try to find another Grand Touring car that has two doors and a tray instead of a boot. Leave the GT name off the ute, it has no place there and never will.
