I agree with everything that's been said. What impressed me also was the fact that they didn't just blow me off, like most large corporations would've. This just shows that Holden is at a whole different level in the automotive playing field.

Now this is just a concept car, but it appears to be the same basic car as the Commodore SS. Being in business is ALL about selling cars. Holden wouldn't have tooled the GTO nor the G8 if they didn't want to sell cars in the USA. They had their hands in deep in the new Camaro. This project to me seems VERY logical. GM importing one of their own! Is this the 3rd Holden import to hit the shores of the USA? Is this going to be the NEW Monte Carlo?

I think as many of us as possible should contact Holden about this. The more input they get from the USA, the better chances there is of this happening! Here is the link to contacting Holden.

TELL THEM we want the Coupe 60 sold here in the USA as the new Chevrolet Monte Carlo!

I love it too.

Leave it to a racecar driver (Jamie Lynn) to notice the 5 point safety harness.

I would make that front bumper an option though. A little too much on the ricey side for my taste. Don't want it completely boring, but not way over the top either.

I like the side exhaust and the rear bumper. Very agressive looking car.

I wouldn't change a thing inside the car. That is one cool car!

Not the kind of nude beaches we'd really like though.
The only people who like to get naked on the beach are the one's we wouldn't want to see in the first place. Most of the really gorgeous people know better than to go completely nude. They know there's always cameras around.
