so after searching more on the web about the monaro, i have READ that this is not the evoloution of the "A" body.
the monaro was smaller; 112" wheelbase
it was originally based on another holden platform which was another opel platform; and it was also rebadged just like the GTO. not an 'A" body
maybe not fact but this is what i've read. i've read nothing that relates this to the "A" body.
monaro was retired for 24 years. re badged. so theres the evoloution theory out the window.
THEY STUCK A GTO LOGO ON IT. fact. there is NOTHING that ties the 04-up GTO's to the old ones; maybe it wasnt necessary but just saying and pointing out the obvious. no pontiac engine. foreign car, not made in america.
all i stated in my first post is that the pictured concept looks more 'GTO like" to me than the new GTO.
didnt mean to get brad or pont3's panties bunched up but the childish responses were amusing. Be big boys and try not to take it personally.
i didnt say i wished they made this concept, or any such thing.
