Default Holden Commodore, next Grand Prix?

Saw this on a magazine yesterday, and did a little searching. Not long ago, Holden released the Commodore concept. Now, turns out Pontiac wants to use it for the new Grand Prix. I dunno, I thought 08 was gonna be the last year, and this body was gonna carry it out, but w/e. This car still rocks. 6.0L V8 + 6spd manual.

Maybe a 4 door GTO would do better? :?:

No, GM hasn't said anything yet about that being it. Motortrend designed the concept, well acually they photoshopped it.

Looks good. But GM will screw it up, like the Aura.

yeah, when I first saw it in MT, I almost threw up, but the design has def. grown on me. And the fact that we're gonna get a RWD GP sounds almost orgasmic

Cmon guys.

This is a GP/bonne replacment FOR 08. It wont be named the GP anymore, it'll be named the G8.
So yes technically the G8 is going away, but it'* really just like the GA and the G6 replacment.
