I read on another site that GM in the Us is considering using the Commodore as their next Pontiac Grand Prix?

You think it would sell over there if it did?

I dont see why it wouldn't unless a bunch of old pontiac fans whined and bitched that it didn't have hood scoops or dual exhaust...

Sure it would sell, it has nice lines and todays market loves the 4-doors.

Just as long as they get that Holden emblem off of it...I don't see why it wouldn't sell. Nice looking car otherwise.

Just as long as they get that Holden emblem off of it.... That's pretty rude ay...

(quite obviously it would be re-badged)

i'd be finding a Holden emblem to put back on. but regardless, if it were the new Grand Prix, i'd take one in a heartbeat, it looks like a great car. great lines and from what i've seen from GM's high-res photos, good build quality too. i think the new commodore would do well here in the US, i can't find any reason why it wouldn't, and you know it'd be one hell of a driver's car.

to my american eyes, the commodore and the monaro look very similar. one being a 4dr, the other a coupe.

Thats because the design for the Monaro/GTO is taken from the VT-VX shape of commodore.

Obviously Monaro has 2 doors, but roofline is also chopped by 100mm or so, to get that sweet sweet look to it :D

You da man!!
