    New Monaro coupe

    If you done know what a Holden Monaro is, its basically identical to the new Pontiac GTO they have here in the states(Cept the Monaro has been around since 2001).

    Old Monaro:


    New concept:









    And a Pontiac photoshop lol


    I think its one hot car. I would definitely consider it if Pontiac cloned it over to the states :)

    I need to find the reasoning as to why all new cars have plastic rear bottom bumpers n skirts now.

    And it comes on 21" rims.. that's gonna be a bitch to replace tires

    Saw this yesterday... SWEET looking car. I'd take it over everything else GM offers except the C6 ZR-1.

    Plastic is cheap... and the one you see on the Monaro has is called a Diffuser.
    It allows better airflow... and thats all I know, which doesn't matter cause thats what they are used for mainly anyway (I believe). Maybe Warm knows something more about it?

    And wow holy crap that is a hot car! The side windows are HOT! I wonder how it would work though, it looks like one piece---until you open the door.

    edit: Okay so it's to reduce drag/lift by controlling air flow

    I am sure the back windows rull down with the front, just like in a convertible.

    If so, I wonder if the passengers would be able to control those backwindows.
    I noticed in one picture, I saw the window. In the rest.. it's like it's not even there.
    Man the car is so hot =o

    Center console, 4 buttons, look to be the window switches. No switches on the doors, so they must be them :)
