Here are some shots of the Holden Coupe 60 concept from the Melbourne Auto Show…

In essence, a shortened (by 60 mm) two-door version of the Commodore VE… a car that could easily be the next Monaro…

Or, in an extreme sense, could be the next G8 coupe or GTO…

That’s pretty sweet! I’d rock it.

On a side note, I saw somewhere online that there is a special Holden GTS-R (or something) that is also getting the LS9. I wonder if this is it? That car + LS9… mmmmmm :lickout:

It looks like it might be on the same chassis as the new Camaro too.

I don’t like how so many new cars have such a HIGH ass end. It seems every year it gets higher and higher. Maybe it is just the angle of the pics though…?

I wish they just sold HOLDEN here. Fuck Pontiac and their gay interpretation of models. All their pieces of shit look the same.
