I like them both. I think Craig is probably closer to reality, butI think it looks too muchlike a GTO.I also don't care for the wing spoiler. If they made one similar to the white one, they would sell like hotcakes. GM really needs to get their heads out of their rear ends and get these new models on the lots.
If I could go get one similar to the white one, I would get one TODAY! But I would like mine in BLACK, please!

 

If they do something about a new Monte I hope it will be more retro looking like the 1st gen or the mid 80's SS and for all things that are holy please bring back the Knight symbol. Restore the history of the wonderful Monte!

 

[align=center]Hi `Mark,[/align][align=center][/align][align=center]I agree, it would be awesome in BLACK : )[/align][align=center]I attempted 2 doa photoshop, but[/align][align=center]we will have to leave it to our talented[/align][align=center]artists like`Craig or Mod Bigg `J,[/align][align=center]to do one justice : )[/align][align=center]Here's my `noviceattempt[/align][align=center][:-][/align][align=center][/align][align=center][/align]

 

looks like the new malibu

 

Yes. It does resemble the new Malibu.

 

It would make sense that it looks both like a Subaru or a GTO, it is based on the Zeta platform which made the Commodore extremely popular in Australiawhere Subaru's are big business.

 

sorry

 

I highly doubt there will be a 2009 Monte Carlo...maybe in 2012 or so they will bring it back.

 

I found these articles about the Zeta platform.

[/align][align=center]Say It's So, Mate: Holden Ute Coming Stateside? [/align][align=center][:-][/align][align=center][/align]



Our boy Yozzie, the down-under version of Paul Drake, uncovered this tidbit related to the new Holden Commodore Ute (that's the one with the pickup bed). Sources of CarPoint say "substantial" export orders from "the Americas" have led company execs to push up the launch date of the new Commodore Ute to this Spring, instead of the Fall. What's more, the new ute will be built with left-hand drive. Could that mean Chevrolet is planning to revive the El Camino badge? GM is already raiding Holden's work product for the Pontiac G8 and the rear-drive underpinnings of the upcoming Camaro; how hard would it be to send over the next Holden ute on the same boat? We're not holdin' (hiho!) our breaths around here, considering the likely target is Brazil. Still, a renewed sense of truckcarishness would vindicate Jalop to the max. Hold out hope. – Mike Spinelli
