the monaro, to me, looks like it was a nova not an 'A' body.
the monaro also dissappeared for twenty years reappearing on an opel omega "B" chassis, also not an "A' body.
so i dont believe that its the "natural evoloution of the "A" body". they just brought back the name "monaro" and then "GTO" and stuck them on cars. this is only what i have read.
anyway...i'm glad they did.
i wasnt crazy about the new GTO's but i still point out every one i see.
young people who wouldnt have known what a GTO was, now know, and give our old cars more respect.
and it makes a good showing. most powerful/fastest ever.
back to the topic tho...
i thought it was neat that someone was drawing up GTO's. someone was trying. someone was imagining a pontiac and not a chevy or a mustang, thats all.
the more i look at it, i see what you dont like.
