Only the "Holden Sanctioned" person was allowed to drive the car...but it took a couple of laps around the display area. With all the B/S from Pontiac engineers on how they "tuned" the exhaust to sound more "GTO"....it sounds like any other other HSV...Clubsport etc. Can anyone say "advertising hype?"
Its a nice car...but if you didn't look at the badges, you'd think you were driving a CV8 or a HSV GTO maybe...internally, aside from sitting on the wrong side of the car (you guys in the states aught to fix that...lol) theres very little to see thats different from the Holden.
All of which gets a thumbs up from me, as I reckon the Holden Monaro is a pretty classy ride.
