GM re releases the GTO

[GMH454]

No the catera is not avaiable here. Our commodores which the GTO coupe is based on are in turn based on the opel omega platform. The BIG difference is that ours are engineered for rear wheel drive while the opels are front wheel drive. Ford also sells RWD sedans still with the old 302 Windsors. These now run low 14s and are built with 290hp+ modified engines. Ford and GM are still in the muscle car wars down here and from a buyers point it's great.
GM is making terrific profits everywhere in the world except the states. I think letting all your sedans go front wheel drive was a mistake.
There was talk of bringing the cadillac and corvette to OZ but now that we have a home grown coupe with optional 300kw (Calloway LS1) it will never happen.
Back in the 70's the best engine that GM would give us was from the SS Camaro 350. Now it appears the sky is the limit
