My mother, non-car driver, often comments, out of the blue, "that's a lovely car".

This is worrying as she has never commented about any 2 or 4-wheeled vehicles that I've owned before nor has any interest in motorised transport, unless it's taking her somewhere.

Stick with the monaro, i prefer coupes.

ANd its not like the LS3 is a million times better then the LS2...welll the heads sure are.
PLus monaro is slightly more tossable, but they are all great cars so really its up to you, either way its a win win

They had to make the VXR8's so cheap to shift 'em !! I mean, you would 'upgrade' to a 4 door saloon ?? Next thing it'll be a sporty estate............

Bit of an own goal as it's exactly what they did with the Monaro.
