Well you should order one and i think the price tage once converted to USD would be around $100000.00 dollars but hey that's USD$100000.00 less than the GT2.Hey Holden will be racing it in the up and coming 24 Hour race at our iconic track being Bathurst. Bathurst it that track that has the formidable "Dipper" which has been recently voted scarier than the Cork screw at Laguna Seca. If you would to do a few laps around this track then spark up your Playstaion 11 and paly the world touring cars game and select Australia then Bathurst.

By Now.

Check out this website, guys.

The Monaro/Pontiac GTO will be racing in this 24 hours race. This race should give you some idea of the performance of the Monaro/Pontiac GTO.

The Monaro that is racing at the 24 hour is quite different to the Monaro that is replacing the GTO , as the 24 hour version is a 7 litre and fully race speced. There is also a considerable difference in price , due to all the top shelf goodies that have been put into the HRT427. Although you just never know what might happen in the future. One thing that i was recently eluded to when in contact with Rodge Macik was that GM want the Corvette to be at the top of the food chain in regards to performance levels. So obviously if the HRT427 was wanted it will probably be knocked back by GM through their patriotism & Arrogance.

By now.

It doesn't matter if the Monaro entered in the Bathurst 24 hours race is race spec or not. If it win or does well, it success will enhanced the name Monaro/Pontiac GTO and hence increase its public appeal and sales prospects.
