If anything, take a look at the Chevrolet Lumina SS thats sold in the Middle East. Another v8 sedan based version of the Holden Commodore, just like your G8 is. That's the closest bet to the next version of the G8 in the states with a Bowtie on it IMO. But i wouldnt be surprised if the Caprice Police car is there as another vehicle shown by GM.

I would rock the one on the left, looks like a Chevrolet S5. That to me is a good thing.

I was under the impression that this new car being shown at Chicago was going to be "exciting". Is a new Chevelle not exciting? A Chevelle has no heritage behind it? I'm not sure what you mean by that, so you are willing to bet that a new Zeta model, that nobody knows would be a better idea than a nameplate some recognize? or are you hoping that this will be the HP Camaro? |

I heard GM started the new Zeta in May 2009 and if GM is putting money into the platform to improve it then anything is possible. As long as the platform work is done and proven to work it would take long to build a whole different car on top of it. It took Steve Saleen 45 days to build Bumblebee from the ground up in 2009 and he used the Sigma I believe. I don't think it would have scored a 5 star crash test rating but it can be done...

Don't let the paper stats fool you. GM gave him a fiberglass concept shell...he bolted it up, hacked the interior together to serve as a movie prop and slapped his name on it... (And it was a GTO) I've gotta agree with Fenwick though, if they've got an inkling to bring a NEW....not a rebadged Commodore...RWD sedan to market, it will take the better part of two years. Of course...release date it dependant on when they decided to start development...IF they want to do it....and IF it's a brand new vehicle... |

Long time lurker, first time poster.
As an owner of a G8 GT I am very interested in this debut. I would love to see what Chevy does with the Zeta sedan. Of coarse, if it IS a Camaro that would be great as well, as long is its not just some appearance package. I've seen a few post about what folks think this "Chevelle" should look like. Well, in 2008 Holden made a concept called the Coupe 60. This was based on the Zeta platform and looks amazing. I also stumbled across a Buick rendering of this as well. Both cars look great and the Buick would actually be deserving of the GN title. Take a look. |

I love reading these Z28 threads. So much speculation. I guess we'll know for sure tomorrow.

No one at GM has even seen that one... 'cause it "Stealth." Get it, you can't confirm what you can't see. Linger Longer.
