Talk:Holden Monaro

message: I think the body type convertible should be removed - the convertible (and wasn't it gorgeous) was a one off show car.
Also, in the specifications for pre 1971 cars there is no mention of the 253 cubic inch or 4.2 Litre V8 (HT onwards), 308 ci (5.0 litre) V8 (HT onwards, replaces 307 ci), 327 ci V8 (HK only), or 350 ci V8 (HT and HG models). All were readily available and now highly sort after - particularly the 327 and 350 ci versions. 220.240.235.14 04:38, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I searched for Vauxhall Monaro, but came here.
OK, so the Vauxhall Monaro is just a rebadged Holden Monaro. Possibly a few minor differences due to different legislations, and there are a couple of styling tweaks, but other than that they are the same. However, it is only the LATEST Monaro that has been sold as a Vauxhall Monaro. The earlier versions weren't available in the UK.
Therefore, I propose a separate article entitled "Vauxhall Monaro" that details just the British part of the Monaro legacy.
:The "British part of the Monaro legacy" currently adds up to about to two paragraphs. If the Vauxhall Monaro section grows a bit it may warrant being moved to its own article, but for now I think it's fine where it is. I've restructured the article a bit and added subheadings so it should read a bit better now. I've updated the Vauxhall Monaro redirect to point to the new section --Richmeistertalk 01:24, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Many people dislike the 2004 Monaro/GTO design. However, I personally find the newer look to be more exciting and stylish compared to the originals. Can we please refrain from sneaking opinion words into the GTO section when documenting its lack of success? The article can reference how people have found it "bland", but shouldn't itself insist the notion onto the reader--it's a subjective matter, after all. 71.139.178.45 20:01, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually the current wording is fine. However, this phrase earlier in the article seems to be excessively subjective "it was somehow seen as not as sporty looking compared to the earlier HK-HT-HG series, but is often now considered one of the best looking body designs to come from an Australian producer. " given that it is uncited, and sounds like OR and fails NPOV by your incorrect definition. Greglocock 03:36, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

message: The 3'rd gen infobox picture is a Pontiac GTO, surely it would be better to have a picture of a Holden Monaro than a Badge engineered version which has its own article? An article about an Australian car should really have the version sold in Australia as its info box picture and at the very least have a car with the steering wheel on the right side for the country.(Morcus (talk) 00:18, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

If the two are similar then why not include a little information about it? Thanks. --200.103.115.210 (talk) 20:48, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
