Have any of you driven a Holden? The car is awesome its a shame they arnt rebadging the GTS Monaro. This would beat a Corvette which is how the whole GTO started. Before you start having a go at it drive one.

True. The whole idea of the GTO (and the Camaro and Firebird, I've read) came from Holden. Let's not automatically discount anything else that might come about.

I "own" a GTO, and it is awesome ie. Power, torque,speed. stability...I also owned a 74 GTO, 79 Trans Am, as well as a few Gran Prixs and I Agree That The Holden Pontiac GTO, is far advanced than any of the cars mentioned above. I have blown the doors off everything that have attemped a street race with me.. Mustangs, Nissan 350s, BMWs, Dodge 2dr Coupe I forget the name, and many others.
There is room for many horsepower increases to beyond 500hp with no change in appearance (L&M Performance.Com)has many bolt ons...The GTO is the "Best" car that I have owned!!!
