GM International boss confirms spiritual successor to Holden's iconic V8 coupe is com

[VS 5.0]

Will be interesting to see what this will be.

Confirmed: Holden's next Monaro

Good to hear there is a V8 confirmed in the lineup.

I hate the headline. The article goes on to say it WON'T be a Monaro.

I also think the best thing they could do regarding RHD models is their "pick up" range.

Personally, I'll take a Caddy CTS-V Wagon next!

Yuuup.

They wont ever do another Monaro unless they want the guy who paid big dollars fo the final one to whip out his lawyers.

CTSV Wagon, HNNGGGG.

I love them so much. Which is part of the reason why I got the G8 Wagon, looks wise, if you squint enough its there

He went on to add that it will "most likely" have a V8 engine

:hmmm: Maybe a turbo 6??

They do have the Twin Turbo V6 in the Caddy.

But, for the Australian market, one would assume theyd be hitting the V8s. Traditionally, thats what the "enthusiasts" (sounds nicer than bogans) want and we dont really have a push for smaller cleaner engines here like they do in other parts of the world.
