I want one:drool: :drool: :bow:

This with a 427ci 7.0L engine now in the W427 HSV just revealed at the motorshow, now thats a dream car!!!:yike:

[seldo]

Nick - cancel the GTR....
How good is that? They just need to rub that together with the HSV W427....
WoooHoooo!!!
As they say...."I just want one!"
Where do I sign?

[MID02K]

Its a great looking peice of kit......
Ahh if only the wife loved me that much...

[35R]

Styling is just right i reckon, i love it. Throw the LS9 in it! I wonder if they will ever do another Monaro.

[NickS]

Styling is great ... but do you honestly think it would be comparible to a GTR ?

[MID02K]

Nick as much as i doubt it would be comparible you have to admit, that if holden could produce a super car to rival the GT-R you would be there wouldnt you?

[235rwkw]

now this is what i think is a great car design!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

got someone back who can design cars, give him a pay rise...

[NickS]

Nick as much as i doubt it would be comparible you have to admit, that if holden could produce a super car to rival the GT-R you would be there wouldnt you?

Without a doubt ... but I just can't see it happening

:(

[Westie]

I think if you get under 5 sec 0 - 100Kph, into supercar territory (as they say), then i dont think it matters what type of car it is you drive!!

It just depends on how you want to get there.:cool:

My opinion ofcourse.

There is an awful lot more to it than 0-100 ... a true supercar does everything exceptionally, not just the forwards stuff.

[seldo]

More...

...and the mumble is that it WILL happen......:) :yep:

[BOMI]

WOW :eek: :eek: :drool::drool:




That looks so horrrrrrn!!!! :bow:




So after the "LAST" every monaro it seems they are doing more, or are going to??



Thanks for posting up Dunc!

Just whack a 700hp 438ci V8 in it and it would be just perfect, hey Dunc?

I was just reading about it on a news website, some finishing aspects I don't like but the overall package I think is pretty porn-like, I like. It almost looks E90 M3 on second glance, again I like.

They say history repeats itself, lets hope so. :D

[highlander_69r]

nice car, rather a camaro but :)

I'd like to think they would build it, i can only wish. I dont think it would compare to a GTR, or a Porsche (or various other supercars) but hey it's a 2-door commodore costing a fraction of the price. I would still love one though. I think it's porn like too.

[firebug]

Ahh if only the wife loved me that much...

If only my bank manager loved me that much... :cry:

[cosmo vyss]

That is fantastic. God I hope the build it. I would order one in a heartbeat.

...and the mumble is that it WILL happen......:) :yep:

'course it will!

Does everyone remember when there were "no plans" for a production version of the Commodore Coupé? Hmmm..

I say we'll be seeing this baby in about 2 years. :yep:

Cheers,
- Febs.

[Duffman]

That is, in my opinion, the best looking commodore ever! Looks absolutely sensational.

It's a shame to think that if it did somehow make it into production, that some aspects of it would have to be changed.

For sale: One slightly used Kidney..

Will sell with 6 mths warranty for 140,000... or consider trade for HSV coupe 60\

are you serious?

who did you talk to.

I think Ken (Animal) tried to place an order but they wouldnt let him.

[NickS]

Even if you could place an order ... imagine the wait !!!

I'd be reluctant to order anything until I could see the production version, take off all the cool stuff, put on smaller wheels, increase the ride height ... might look quite ordinary ???

Don't get me wrong ... I love the concept, it's just that I can see A LOT of changes before it becomes reality ... unfortunately.

I think the same thing happened with the other monaro concept car, the initial groundswell of interest / order requests had an impact - so i've been told. But I think you are right Nick, they would change the really sexy aspects of this car and it would look different in production trim. However i would quickly fix that! I would order one in a heartbeat. That's just me being silly i guess.

[NickS]

That's just me being silly i guess.

Nothing wrong with silly ... if it goes to production and retains 80% of what the concept has it will be sensational.

:drool:

[Westie]

They would need alot of expected sales to make it worth producing this. I think i heard that every panel is different, which adds up to lots of $$$.

And with large car V8 sales not looking healthy into the future, i dont expect this one to make it:swear:

I agree with Nick, by the time it was productionised (no side pipes thats for sure), it would be half as good....still good though:yep:

Sorry - I didn't mean literally. But I'd order one in a heart-beat. I did however put in a definite "expression of interest" for the W 427.

Oh ok. I got a bit excited for a while there :cool:
