Hi All,

So my 2 previous cars have been VE's, a 2008 SV6 and a 2010 SS. I've always wanted a CV8z but never bought one due to their Age.

Anyway a few weeks ago I went to my local dealer to check out a MY12 SSV Redline Ute, there was a Monaro sitting a few cars down that caught my eye. Next thing I know I'm test driving it and falling for it.

The car may be 5 years older than my SS but the interior is 10 times nicer!
From what I can tell, the body and interior is in immaculate condition and she only has 23,000kms.

I think the car is stock except for window tint, maybe the black paint on the rims? At first I thought it had some exhaust modifications because it sounds tough as, but I was talking to a few other Monaro owners and they told me that it was stock.
I have already removed the Chev Badges that were on her and replaced them with some Holden ones.

I need to learn some more about VZ's and LS1's but once I sell my SS I think I will want some more power.

Below is my new baby - 2005 Fusion Monaro CV8z

Nice pick up mate, any mods planned? And yeah the wheels are painted cos they are standard a silver alloy colour

I'm trying to talk dad into getting a turismo blue Monaro haha looked at one at Holden one day but it was full of stone chips so that was a no go

Still a nice pick up mate, not too many monaros on here

Thanks guys. Yes I love the fact that there aren't many Monaro's out there.

I will think about doing some performance mods once I get some cash from the sale of my VE SS.
I don't want to blow my fuel consumption out the window though as it is my daily driver.

I'm guessing that the *fapfapfapfapfap* is in reference to a Turbo? Lol
