rmmackfc Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Anyone see it? I've resorted to Sky+ ing it....watch the good bits, fast forward the rest. 5 minutes worth to watch New Monaro looks horrible, but shifts...0-60 4.9! Have to say I did love that green GT3RS Porker...and I don't like porkers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmmackfc Posted June 18, 2007 Author Share Posted June 18, 2007 It's a Holden HSV over there, and a VXR8 here. £35k 414bhp Still got the 6.0L V8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GC350z Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 I'm a looking but cant find anything on holden.com.au or hsv.com.au and I did read not so long ago that it was gone. The closest thing I can find to it is the Commodore. I know in the US the Monaro is sold under the title GTO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris`I Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 If I'm honest that lime green GT3 RS had me looking on Pistonheads for one last night Make your mind up man I love the GT3 RS. Went to Bedford in a mates Evo VIII and down the straight they were coming past us as if we were walking! I think we got to about 130MPH, and they would just steam past. Absolutely amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Hate the series and don't generally watch it but last night I did and one of the funniest things I've seen for a while was the robin reliant race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkW Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 If I'm honest that lime green GT3 RS had me looking on Pistonheads for one last night Get an orange one.... Havent seen 5gear yet, but love the GT3 RS. Think I would have to stick to the standard GT3 though unless planning to do a lot of track days.

That Yeti bloke knows no fear, he just kept rolling it and rolling it. When it landed roof first on the barrier I thought it was curtains but the damned stupid thing just kept running. Priceless!

The closest thing I can find to it is the Commodore. I know in the US the Monaro is sold under the title GTO. The VXR8 is the equivallent of the HSV Clubsport R8 apparently, so technically not a Monaro (but it is really, ie 6L V8 and sideways sliding ). You're right with th e GTO thing, was manufactured under Pontiac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
