just throw a supercharger on a GTO and you'll have basically the same car.

Awesome video. I really hope there are some affordable LS2s for sale when I get a decent job after graduation. Holden's Monaro is simply beyond words.

More like take the s/c off a VXR and you have a GTO.

I agree completely with Rook, Holden has a great lineup of cars. Those Aussies are lucky. :p

Yup... can you drive thos cars in Amercia? I was thinking buy a GTO for 32K and throw a supercharger on there for 4K and you have your MOnaro...but for some reason I like the Monaro body better...

Is that the host that replaced Hammond who had that terrible car crash?

That guy has been on the show for a long time. He used to do smaller, in-between segments. No idea if he's the replacement.

"It can go 75mph in first gear, which means the other gears are there to see how angry the police are at you"

lol lol

The body style doesn't grab my attention, but it sounds like a cool car.
