Hi guys,
I'm curious as to the most popular color for the Monaro.
As the car is coming stateside as a 2004 Pontiac GTO, I plan on getting one. I've got the models in all colors offered(except Phantom black) and I assume that the same colors will be available.
Thanks
Ben

Hi There,
Just thought i would let you know the HSV GTS coupes would be more closer in resemblance to the Pontiac GTO's that are going to USA moreso than the Monaro's. Also Biante has some prototypes of the GTO on there website which will be made.

The pictures on the website are of the 255kw HSV GTO not the Pontiac GTO. The car that will be shipped to the states will be from Holden, not HSV.

Seems i have made a mistake and have been informed by a reliable informed source that the GTO WILL be closer in resemblance to Monaro , and not what i have stated.

OOPS SORRY for Misleading

Firstly, to answer the original question, Black is the best selling Monaro colour Australia wide. Flame is a high seller in WA, but it will soon be rep*^@#$ with *#!%&@ oops, cant tell you that yet!! You'll have to wait until around xmas....

Thanks for the link Perry, my opinion is that they have ruined the looks of a nice car. Wouldn't make a nice model in diecast.

Thanks for the replies, guys. Thanks also for the link, Perry. The face of the GTO version looks 100% better than some previously posted pictures that I'd seen. and I'm happy that Bob Lutz has banned the plastic body cladding prevelant on previous Pontiacs. I was afraid Pontiac would overdo the GTO makeover of the Monaro. And Colin, surprisingly the green DOES look attractive, and I dislike green.
