As you guys probably realise the Holden Monaro is from down under and they are a dime a dozen here and would not say that they have any great Q-status, although like the WRX they are very popular with some.

Note this model has also been exported to the US as the Pontiac GTO, where is better optioned and cheaper!

There was even a 4wd model put together.
Personally.. it is just another holden with a big engine which doesn't really bring a lot of cudos around here unless you're a holden or ford fan. No offence though since that's probably a large % of the Australian population.
Though, with 5.7 - 6.0 l of V8 it's going to be quick!
I would think in UK it would look kind of rare.
