<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by whatza monaro??:



...What makes the GM Monaro worthy of the GTO badge? Certainly not it's appeal as is evidenced by it's lack of sales. The reaction to the introduction of the GM Monaro as a GTO seems to have had the exact opposite effect that the introduction of the GTO had as an option on the Tempest. To compare the two is an exercise in futality. Let the real GTOs rest in peace and let GM build one that is worthy of the GTO badge: not some half-assed attempt to pass off some import on a fleet design as an icon reborn. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>



Again, Dealers not willing to deal, markup's, competition, many factors on why it wasn't selling. But there are still cars to be had and they will sell 14K of them before the 05's arrive.

Remember, the car was NEVER EVER meant to be mass produced. Hell, it sold more than the last WS6 Trans Am's.

Try to come up with something more original than the Fleet Sale line. Hell if you are going to use that you could use that moniker for the Mustang since a great deal go to Rental Car fleets.
