2005 Monaro LS2 6.0L Engine?

[thomasthetank]

Hi all I am thinking of upgrading to the new VZ Monaro as Holden are doing some good deals on the 2004 models. My only concern is that the 2005 model will come out with the new LS2 engine, has anyone heard or have any idea when this might happen? All the Holden dealers are saying that the 05VZ car will be the same as the 04 VZ

just placed a long post on my findings on this rumour (in the above link) ... as im wating on my VZ Monaro to be delivered some time mid March .... IMHO if ur not bothered about the car being 04 plated and u can find the colour u want (04 plated tursimo might be a bit scarce) then i would definately do a deal on an 04 VZ Monaro ... not sure about ur location .. but if ur from syd and ur serious about making a purchase on a 04 plated car ... give me a PM and i will put u in touch with the guys ive dealt with .. customer service was second to none.
