El Caminooooooooo
Have been reading your comments and posts on 'our' Commodore's, the 'new' Monaro's, and the Ute's...... well what about this then??? http://www.webwombat.com.au/motoring.../2_03_hold.htm
I saw a Monaro in the city yesterday, looked pretty good. One of the nieghbour boys has an SS Ute, Chev powered, six speed box..... Check out V8Supercar.com as well.....and then have a look for the Callaway powered 'Senator' at http://www.hsv.com.au/cars/sen/senator99.htm Bill

i think they look sweet, compared to the crap available from gm U.S. these days (buncha front wheel drive crap) this is a big step up for the non-truck (technically) segment. the aussies still love a good rear wheel drive bowtie powered sedan/ute and thats just fine by me. the close as i can get to real performance and comfort is a C5, (can't afford to buy or drive it/2-seater) or the nice looking but most uncomfortable to drive camaro (blind spot, real bad seats, can't see over the hood) so, gm start importing that ute ss and i'll dam sure be there to buy one.
