Default Re: Will the Holden brand survive?

I can’t understand why people are hinting that the Camaro will be the saviour of Holden.
The V2 Monaro sold 13,000 variants during its cycle, and that was at a price that most drivers who wanted one, could afford. ( No counting exports)
The present market for a large coupe is the Mustang and that has been satisfied, even if a fair proportion are 4 cylinder.
Room for a few Camaros ? Probably, but nowhere near Mustang for the projected Oz price.
As for Cadillac, anyone looked their specs ? FWD 4s and V6s. And where is the CTS in their current lineup ?
Will the GM brand survive ? Yep. Selling FWD SUVs in China, and RWD trucks in the US.
Holden will survive. After its parts inventory has been bought out by Rare Spares.
