WrathOfSocrus Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 I found this pic a while back. I'm not crazy about the spoiler or the side skirts but the front bumper would be sweet to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Aerotech III) I didn't see this until fairly recently, but the rear end of this car looks completely bad-ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptcfast2 Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 (edited) I present to you...the Lumina Z34 Camino! Lest we forget the Lumina SR2 concept as well... Edited November 6, 2011 by ptcfast2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel87 Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Indeed it does. You know I just can't even imagine what Oldsmobile would have to offer if it was still around. All the innovations brought to cars from them, and these wicked concepts from them, I looked up all Olds concept cars and I tell you, their old slogan "The escape machines... Escape from the ordinary" follows along with their design. GM made a big mistake letting Olds and Pontiac go... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ptcfast2 Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 (edited) So GM abandoned the Pro-Street model and left us with the disgrace the 1.5 Gens were to the Monte name? Here's an article on the Pro-Street 1995 Monte: http://www.hotrod.com/featuredvehicles/42647_1995_chevrolet_monte_carlo_v8/ Oh, and here's the LED Sled version of the 1995 Monte next to the Pro Street version. I think? a Lumina 1.5 gen concept is in far left background - might be an Impala, can't really see it though: Edited November 6, 2011 by ptcfast2 Whoops!

Well... it would absolutely suck ass for hauling anything. With the drive wheels at the front of the car and not underneath the bed, the car would just be a novelty item and would have little functional purpose. The reason w-bodies like the Monte Carlo sell are because there is a market for entry-level FWD sports cars in America. If GM were to make an El Camino-ish car, it would make more sense to put it on a RWD platform like that of the G8 (or whatever new RWD platform they are going to use for the new Impala and Cadillac DTS). Not to mention, front-wheel-drive is just weird and awkward in the first place. Although, I realize I'm totally on the wrong forum to be saying something like that Edited November 6, 2011 by Luminator9c3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94 olds vert Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 It doesn't matter me to that it couldn't haul things. It's purley designed for the looks and nostalgia of the vehicle. Besides I'm a huge first gen fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen those over here. Some converted to left hand side drive and others still original right hand drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMP Posted November 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 I've seen those over here. Some converted to left hand side drive and others still original right hand drive. I believe they sell them in the middle east and i know that the rwd Luminas (aka holden commodore or pontiac g8) are left hand drive.
