    Dear Holden,

    Put me down for one.

    I’ll be replacing my VE SS in around 2010 or 11…..

    If holden do import it they will price it above what the monaro sold for making it out of reach for a lot of people who would have considered it.

  • Golfschwein

    Price it high and watch it sit. Code words could be Piazza, Adventra and Vectra.

    Nothing sells at the wrong price. Anything can sell at the right price.

    Ever since my Father had a brand new 1967 Pontiac GTO, I have been hooked on coupes. That car made everything else on the road look ordinary – and it had the muscle to match the looks.
    I think the 2009 Camaro would do the same. There must be plenty of 50yo+ enthusiasts,like me,who need a new toy that has real WOW factor(not just another Commodore variation). I don’t need four doors and I really don’t care about fuel costs.
    After owning a CamaroSS396 and a Trans am GTA,make my new CamaroSS-Victory Red with black stripes. GM Premium – GO FOR IT!!!
