Do you think I would ever be able to get my hands on some of the features included with this model of the GTO?

If anyone knows of a way to get a hold of some of the upgrades on here like the tire preasure gauges, navigation system, dual zone climate control, sunroof, AP brakes, APS suspention. PHEW!

How come Pontiac can't offer these great features!? :confused

Not from Holden you won't. HSV has told me directly that they cannot export a single part of theirs to the US. I guess your best bet is to either scope ebay.com.au or make a few Aussie friends...

Not to sound too jaded, but maybe ask someone who is in UAW why we can't.

Here ya go guys, the people to go to are: http://www.jhp.com.au/monaro-gto/

The big HSV brakes are $5500 US, suspension is 2000, the gauge pod is 450, the nav is almost 3000, the sunroof is avail in the US by Webasto, it's their Hollandia 710 and costs bout 1200 installed (same unit used by the factory). The dual zone climate control isn't easly retrofitable as it requires removing the entire dash and replacing all the duct work. I spent a good 45 min on the phone with Geoff Thuring down under at JHP. I actually ordered almost all of what your looking for, stay in touch and I'll let ya know how it goes. Oh, also got the factory Bluetooth phone interface for $385! Will

ps, if you priced one of the HSV GTO's you'd see why they don't include all the gizmos. After conversion we'd be paying $75k for the car!

Any one have any pics or links to see the sunroof open? I would really be interested in one depending on the look.

I think you have answered your own question. You just added $12,535 to the sticker price of a GTO. You are getting into Corvette territory there.
