Take one perfectly proportioned Commodore and stick the ugliest beak front end this side of a vulture, call it a Pontiac and the yanks will buy it by the million...

I think the VE is booooorrrriiiinnnng. The G8 takes it out of the Fordodore styling - especially as Orion look slike a VE.

I think the VE lacks aggresion, something the Pontiac version doesnt lack.

What do you guys think of the prototype Camaro that Holden is currently working on? Now that car has aggression stamped all over it.

The front is to keep in common with the front they put on the Monaro

I cant believe you put Tori Spelling in the same category as the G8. What did GM ever do to you?
