I love the Old Monaro as it makes the VT look sweet with it's hot A pillar back still looks good,
But this baby separates itself in looks more, But how can they make that production looking like that It will never happen.

I think my view on Australian cars has been brought across fairly well at this stage.

I want this car.

That is all.

I'll bet on a B pillar being added, different bumpers, a higher ride and smaller wheels. Even then though, I think it'll look outstanding. Me want!

If they do make it i hope this time it's a V6 with DI at least to run it, And i hope no smaller then 18" on it.

I'm just amazed at what the Zeta platform can do it's very versatile i got to admit i am pretty shocked Holden done such a good platform, Not wanting to sound shocked but it is better then expected.

I'm gonna have to be the voice of dissent here.

I don't like the wheels

I also think it looks a bit chunky. but that could be solved with different bumpers. something they are likely to have to fit.

And wheels can be sorted.

You know what? minor details aside, proportions are win, stance is win. It's a bit blocky but hey I drive a Volvo.

Solid A+.

the wheels and the ride height will deffinatly be changed... not sure about the B piller but... it gives it a 1960's/1970's look of the old monaro's eg HT, HK ect ect ect

i hope to god they make it! the yanks stole our first one in the hope we will climb all over the Comaro!!! i think this is what you call given them the bird! lol

Its not as swoopy and because of gapeing holes it never will look as well intergrated.

While function will of no doubt improved 10 fold form has suffered imo and if that didnt matter then XA-XC coupes that rusted right down the middle and practically fell in half never would of sold 2nd hand.
