GTO aka Holden Monaro

Camaro/Firebird aka dead and buried.

Also your logic is anything but. The GTO is one hell of a lot of car for under 30k. Too bad it doesn't come in sedan form or it would be a worthwhile car. It's too fat and heavy to be a good 2 door car. Then again the new Mustang is also fat & heavy as well.

They are both more grand touring coupes then muscle cars and are most DEFINITELY NOT sports cars.



True...I sure do miss my CSVT's 4 doors and bigger trunk. The GTO has about twice as much rear leg room, but getting to the rear is the thing. And it is fat [around 3,900 lbs]...but a '05 and '06 slushboxed GTO is factory rated at 4.6 [0-60] and 13.0 [1/4] and the manual is rated a tad slower at 4.7 [0-60] and 13.1 [1/4]

I doubt that there's much out there that can outrun these tubs, for the money. A few mods [can't wait till I replace the heads and cam] really wake up the LS2. A lot are spraying and supercharging their GTOs, but mine's going to be all-motor. The 3,900lbs is no match for the 6.0 liter V-8
