That is still top of my want-one list. Even above anything like a McLaren F1.

I do love the Lotus Carlton, a proper drivers car without all these fancy driver assist programs, maybe I will get one myself after a good few years of saving and aging a few more years for insurance. Was one driving round my way briefly but disappeared off the scene very quickly.

That's what I like about the Monaro. Just has simple traction control that can be completely turned off 8) :)
