nice....

interesting that they have some music, wonder if they paid for the rights and clearences for it..

I like the Holden front and rear fascias better, just looks much bolder and sportier.... the Pontiac versions seem quite tame...

I love the quote "Think of it as a cut price BMW M5 or a Jaguar XKR thats drunk" LOL

Its amazing that the guys from Top Gear would like an american car aside from the new Ford GT

Mother Jesus Balls!

Here's hoping we get it in that form here in the US. The Aussies have had all the good "Domestic" stuff for too damned long now. Ford, GM, quit being candyasses and bring some of that good stuff to the States!

Cool vid, but eh, another lame design from GM. Typical from them. They need to drop the Grand Am/Grand Prix look because it's just ugly as fuck.
Now if they could only get the looks to match the performance......

You paid attention to the looks? I'm just happy to see a V8 powered RWD.

because nobody likes sleepers or anything, no sireebob.

compare the looks

thadon · 12-16-2003, 10:05 AM

I'm not impressed. Why did they not do this years ago. The Monaro has been avail. in Europe for a while, they should have made the GTO about 5 years ago before they decided to give the Firebird the axe
