Monaro, Hands down.

Reason: simple it is less of a rebadge it kept the model name and basic looks it only got the brand badge replaced.
So it is more inline with the original Holden version.

Monaro, i think in certain ways the GTO defaces the Monaro's sleek lines on the front, though the rear looks nice, but thats still Monaro. Besides the GTO is no comp for the Monaro as it is a Monaro, Pontiac couldn't just make their own bloody GTO they had to deface the Monaro. Sad.


Also i'm Aussie :D

I'll sum it up, please take this in....

Pontiac GTO = Amercianised/butchered Holden Monaro

Vauxhall VXR = HSV GTO Coupe

There we have it, thank you and have a nice day, end of lesson.

Im American so im going with the GTO, looks better too, and sounds better, and dont forget the performance. Monaro looks very similar to the GTO, in Most Wanted it had the same damn performance and everything else. So GTO 4ever.

Someone make a gameplay music video using Wolfmother's "Joker & the Thief" and the Monaro (keep the in-game sounds, eg. engine SFX, etc. in!)

I chose Monaro.


Just because almost everyone else did you know, :lol:.

Tuners Rock, get lost, Monaro VXR looks way better, the sound is the same, and performance is the same, they both use the Chevy C6 Corvettes LS2 6.0 V8. Besides, Pontiac are lame-asses for not making their own but taking Australias Monaro and firetruck the front end up.


And hash, i'll see what I can do about that, i have some nice Monaros

@ stig nah i dont like either car really. the gto looks too much like a steroidal cobalt or cavalier ( choose ) and all it is is a clone. has anyone seen the 2008 gto prototype ?
