They'd also delete the aircon, heater and the radio would be an optional extra.
Perhaps rebadged as a Monaro Viva

I know where you're coming from. . . . . . . . . . .
Thankfully just rebadged as Vauxhall, being the UK tradename for GM, and called the Monaro 5.7i; indeed there is even an official tweaked version called the VXR with a useful heap of extra ponies, that is if the 329 of the normal version is inadequate.
What I don't know is if the speech announcement warning system has been changed on the UK "production" versions; early trade/media Holden demonstrators had the traction control "ON" setting to announce:
"You bloody pommie woose."
In fact at the full list of just over 28K pounds, this is about a third of the price for any super-car here, plus the advantage of a major, national "maker" with its extensive garage network.
