I think this is pretty self-explanatory. The Astre was simply a rebadged Vega, while the Monza was basically a mildly-restyled Vega with a new name--and initially just a trim level of the Vega. Best to avoid duplicity. Jgera5 (talk) 04:28, 25 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I would like to clarify and modify my response from earlier this year. The proposed merger would cover the entire platform and models. However, it seems there could be several approaches and thus the differences in splitting or merging. I think the following suggestion is most "supportable":
  • There are currently separate articles for the Chevrolet Vega and the Pontiac Astre. If the guidelines that have been established for articles related to rebadged versions of cars, the two WP articles about the Vega and Astre twins should be merged into one article. There does not seem to be any historic, geographic, or marketing segment significance to keep two articles about these identical cars. The resulting merged Vega/Astre article would not be long or unwieldily.
This automobile platform subsequently evolved into the Chevrolet Monza and was also used for three more versions (1st-generation Pontiac Sunbird, 1st-generation Buick Skyhawk, and 2nd-generation Oldsmobile Starfire). These have separate articles. Thanks! CZmarlin (talk) 01:46, 1 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I see no reason why we can't merge Pontiac Astre and Chevrolet Cosworth Vega into the main Vega article and merge first gen Pontiac Sunbird, first gen Buick Skyhawk and second gen Oldsmobile Starfire into the Chevrolet Monza article. With the removal of any redundant information, the resulting articles shouldn't be too long to read comfortably.--Kevjgav (talk) 11:26, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
