Have to agree with Chris-great spec but not a fan of the styling. Much prefer the old Monaro...

Mate in Norn Irn rang me last Sunday"listen to this" he said
"sounds lovely,what is it "I replied
"a Monaro with a chipped engine and a very expensive sports exhaust,and I am just about to be taken for a drive in it"says he.
10 minutes later he rings again,yelling above the scream of the engine "ssssshitt,this thing  can shift".
I was suddenly homesick. :)

poxy V6?

I want a V8 rumble!  >:(
im sure in a few years when they come down in price we can transplant a v8 in some how  ;D ;D

I am sure Mr DTM will be along shortly to explain how good the Vx V6 Turbo lump is, but come on, in a big heavy car, V8 has to be the way.

If i had the cash, i would still get a Monaro

It is a very good lump and very tuneable....a single twin scroll turbo setup with full variable valve timing and lift in an all alloy lump, very nice!

I think the back end looks underwhelming on the standard ones I've seen on the road.

Now an estate VXR, that may be different....
