The Monaro is still a very very good looking car. It's aged incredibly well. I saw a yellow one yesterday. Hearing Brocky talk makes me cry. Such a loss.
Wow, love Brocky & Holdens. I have a 03 CV8 & never realised it had so many of the features Brocky talked about! It is a tragedy they are stopping making Aussie Holdens & Aussie Fords.
you would have the model after this one, this is the first version of the v2 monaro, took a few years to get it to the us as a GTO. You're one is like this but even better
@Goshua Jane Exactly mate and thats what I tell everyone that the 04-06 GTOs is nothing but a rebadged Holden Monaro from Australia unlike the original GTOs from the 1960s.
I have the '05 M6 GTO version, and I loved it the moment I drove it off the lot. It's amazing interior, ride and quiet cabin made it feel like a much more expensive car. I doubt I'll ever sell it.
Fred Garvin I would keep it. They have gone up in value with prestine condition models becoming more and more rare especially the 6 speed model. And since they were very short lived here in the U.S. makes them even more rare. Hold on to your prized gem, you won’t regret it
i have the 2002 model and still looks new and turns heads all the time..people just love it and comment its an aswesome car everyware i go,,, i would not trade it for any other car ,,all black with full black interior makes my monaro realy stand out ,
Cool video, must admit I cried when I heard Pete died... and also when I saw is funeral footage. We have two Monaros a 2005 CV8 and an HX GTS....both blue...
Great cars. I wonder how many CV6 monaro's Holden made? Highly desirable car. Both the CV8 and CV6 are desirable classics. CV6's might be a little hard to find.
Makes me wonder why they even bothered with the V6, to be honest, supercharged or not. Monaro has always meant V8 to me! I always loved this design- the VT/VX. Def in my top 3 Commodore designs, along with the VK and VZ.
If only the powers to be allowed the 4 wheel drive technology to compete at Bathurst, I’m sure Holden and Ford would still be in Australia today. HSV offered 4WD in the Monaro range. This was a lost direction in Australia
Missing the point. The commodore was never a Monaro based car.. The Monaro was based on the kingswood, and quite clearly the new style Monaro is a commodore. Like when they were going to make the new Torana based a Opel vectra. Also like when your missing puts on a strap on and gives it to ya. Not quite the same as when your brother gives it to ya.
+TRUNYA1 The commodore was never a Monaro based car? The Kingswood was? (WTF are you talking about) The first Monaro was a two door Kingswood, the 2nd a two door commodore, a natural progression. They are both legendary cars
Opel Monza was a 2 door based on Commodore that Brock converted with 5.0 V8 fitted with irs only made 1... US version of this was called Pontiac GTO...
@@gerardcrabb4556 Aware. The point I was making almost 10 years ago is….. This Monaro in this video, the last of what we know as a Monaro is clearly a 2 door (COMMODORE) The Original….. THE ORIGINAL MONARO we had in the 70s was a Kingswood A Kingswood is not a Commodore. Point I’m making from that is a Monaro is a Kingswood not a commodore so they shouldn’t have called the 2 door commodore a Monaro . They should have just made up a new name for it and not used the old name on a completely different chassis . I own a 4 door HQ KINGSWOOD GTS Monaro. I’ve never seen a VH SLE COMMODORE MONARO. Obviously NOT, Why? because there different chassis. 😂😂😂😂 hope 8 years later that makes sense to all the above comments
Love my Holden's and love Brock but.... The monaro was never a commy it was a kingswood so how can we call a 2 door commy a manny??? Just something that has bugged me for a very long time..
what ,,ya never seen the old 'hk' or 'ht' monaro,,,most old monaro's were in fact 2 door cars ,,,may i suggsst you read up on the history of holden monaro's
monaro was the 2 door version of the 4 door car... now its the 2 door version of the commodore.. makes sense. besides, it wasnt Holden that decided it was a Monaro, the fans demanded it be called Monaro
The Monaro is still a very very good looking car. It's aged incredibly well. I saw a yellow one yesterday.

still have my yellow one.. just cant part with it
Wow, love Brocky & Holdens. I have a 03 CV8 & never realised it had so many of the features Brocky talked about! It is a tragedy they are stopping making Aussie Holdens & Aussie Fords.
The Monaro is such a sexy car. Oh, and I'm a South African guy enjoying Australian muscle, you guys' muscle cars are awesome!
im from the US and i have this amazing car under the Pontiac name. i love it. and this was really awesome to watch.
you would have the model after this one, this is the first version of the v2 monaro, took a few years to get it to the us as a GTO. You're one is like this but even better
But its not a Holden
@@tavisyoung7701 it has pontiac badges you goofball
@@tavisyoung7701 No it is a Holden just with some bullshit Pontiac grille and badge. But underneath that it's a Holden made in Australia.

Get the seats done in cream leather and door trims as well, but keep the OR black seats should you sell it. :)
7071t6 . I doubt i will ever sell it.. lol...
.. cheers for yr comment though 😎
The best car video I have ever seen.
The last real positive initiative seen from holden.
The vid give so much feeling of Need for Speed high stakes. I love it.
Cool video, must admit I cried when I heard Pete died... and also when I saw is funeral footage. We have two Monaros a 2005 CV8 and an HX GTS....both blue...
A haunting treasure, thanks for sharing it
I hadn't seen this Intro before. Vale Peter.Brock .Go Monaro..move ahead of your time
Awesome Monaro vid man love the flame orange colour as well
The cv6 was anything but exhilarating.
Great cars. I wonder how many CV6 monaro's Holden made? Highly desirable car. Both the CV8 and CV6 are desirable classics. CV6's might be a little hard to find.
I have a ht Monaro I just love the Monaro's there my most favourite cars.
LOVE IT!!! 👍👍👍
Miss old man pete 😢
RIP Holden & Peter Brock

Definitely a GMH NUT
Aussie Cars Look Dope But We Only Get A Gto And A G8 In The States
Black with red seats, that's perfectly made or the cream leather seats in a black car. :)
Well done Brocky, What a loss!!
love the video
If only the powers to be allowed the 4 wheel drive technology to compete at Bathurst, I’m sure Holden and Ford would still be in Australia today. HSV offered 4WD in the Monaro range. This was a lost direction in Australia
I’d like a v8 v2 Monaro with latest front before they went out of production.
This song from PS2 Stuntman's Toothless in whopping.
Nice
locked my keys in the boot and use a coat hanger to lift the door button then open boot by glove box switch took me less than 5 min to break in
In your Yugo?! ...roflmao!
Bullsh/t.. because the boot latch is not even in the glovebox. So why talk sh/t
just to think I oooh'd and argh'd over this - nowadays I look and I think wow, what a dinosaur
So what do you drive nowadays?

TRUNYA1 they didn't still have kings woods left by that time so had to base them on a commodore
TRUNYA1 wtf 😂

Ht hg hk Hz hx all kingswoods you clown. I've never heard of a vb vc vh vk Monaro. O hang on a second... The vt chopped and called a Monaro.
+TRUNYA1 Ohhh, that's some awesome logic (by the way there was never a HX or HZ monaro you clown)
