|  Possible new GTO or G8 2Dr? (Real car, no chop)
Friend passed this along to me, and as the image name says "Monaro GTS 2dr". Will Pontiac keep with the 2 and 4dr Grand Prix with the G8, or will they just badge it as a GTO? Who knows, but it looks slick  
EDIT: Looking at it again makes me second guess it not being a chop. If it is one, it's a very well done one. Since it's hard to mimic reflections in the real word.

I think minus the rims, and the stripes would help alot.

The lines look great. Not a fan of the spoiler or rear bumper. I know the bumper won't come over like that since we don't use the trailer hitch like they do over there. But it just needs a little cleaning up.
Very nice.

I know there are some absolute Uber gUrU photoshop artists out there, but I just can't see one of them putting their talents to work on that car. The reflection off the back where a door WOULD be is just too seamless, and where the door gap WOULD be, is non existent.
If it truly is a fake, I'd love to see the other works by the artist.

Looks like it could be a next gen GTO, but it doesn't look that good or like a Ponitac IMO. Yeah the red stripes are a dead give away opn it being a chop.

Considering that Holden doesn't have a 2-door on the VE platform out yet... draw your own conclusion.
