could ya post some smaller images?

I mean i would like to be able to see the car with out having to scroll up/down and left/right.

At this point all I can see is the back fender and wheel without scrolling.

Well finally on my 21" monitor here at the house I can see 1/2 of the car with out scrolling. Kind of looks like the Grand Prix from the front.

I agree with cho_888, the monaro looks much better. Although the GTO is better looking than most (or all) pontiacs out there :)

yeah the Gen 3 as it is more comonly know as over here. If its like the monaro it does 0-100 in about 5.8-6 seconds. It is worth about 50 grand for the CV8 over here *i think ruffly.

Check the new videos thread, just uploaded a review of the GTO. Nothing spectacular but they seemed to be surprised by how refine the "american" car is... :lol: Motor Trend claims it does 0-60mph in 5.3sec, huge diff compared to the 0-100kph (0-62mph) time.

5.3 is pretty quick i think the top end HSV GTO gets those kinds of figures but thats double the price, maybe its a little more powerful and light. Yeah over here people love the Äustralian car. We cant really claim it american engine, neither can teh states it was deisgned and built here. Its a crossed bread between teh 2 mussel car loving countries

IMO I don't like it.Seriously,When Holden bought out the Monaro,It was going to be a car for Australian Muscle car fans and It was Unique to Australia.Then Gm said to Holden to build them a GTO but get some US designers to redesigned the front of it.IMO, the Monaro has lost its Uniqueness to it, due to the GTO.I would like GM to build there own GTO.
