Agreed, a Holden is nothing but a Caddy Catera with an LS1 in it. <img border="0" alt="[Camaro]" title="" src="graemlins/camaro.gif" />

<strong>FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE DONT LET SLP DO ANYTHING WITH THE NEW GTO!!!!

So far the pics I;d seen of the GTO just didnt live up to the Pontiac agressive styling so hopefully when the GTOs actually come out they will look better than all the Gran Prix with less style look a likes. Now Im not saying that they should go overboard like they did with the Aztec but maybe just add a tad bit more style.</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I agree with this as well, DONT LET SLP mess this car up, with all its overpriced accessories, and other miscellanious things that make dealing with SLP a royal pain in the ***.

I also don't like the Bonneville/Grand Prix theme in the headlights. <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" />

personally I like it. I would love to get wife one. You guys do realize this is supposed to be a family car...right? This is not to replace the f-bodies. I for one am glad to see GM coming up with something worth driving daily. As it stands I will not drive a domestic car at all. For daily driving I drive a truck along with millions of others. Thats what this car is designed for as it was in the 60's, Just a supped up family car. beats the hell out of the current Impala. Take a family car but badass motor in it, add some big whees/tires...make it semi sporty handling and HELL YEAH I WILL BUY ONE.
