You bet, it's a 2010 model for sure!

And Emu, how are you gonna say that these pictures aren't taken in Germany?? The photographers themselves said they took the pictures at the 'Ring'!!

Yes, those have been confirmed to be the reverse lights.

Uh isn't that obvious that those are the reverse lamps (after such debate over them being there)...... I thought you guys might have been referring to something else that I wasn't seeing... i guess wishful thinking that those ones would disappear, lol.

So thanks for clearing that up...

no i wasn't actually.... i thought they may have been talking about that little black mark inside the yellow tail lamp it self.... but they weren't.... I was just avoiding the obvious.

Hey all, my first post, iv been lurking in the background for quite some time... maybe 6 months.... i LOVE this car!!! and come march next year, im getting on! (or maybe just after), only greif iv got is

1. i still dunno if its actually comeing to oz!
2. they keep adding stuff to it! (NOT COMPLIANING!!!!!) but it means to get the one i want, i gotta pay more!
4. i can understand that those headlights arnt the real ones, but what can we expect from the final? iv been reading that there gonna be like the concept ones, but how much like them?
5. Thous mufflers! how low r they!?!? id be worried about scraping them on a speed hump!
6. and finally, is there any chance at all the engine bay is goona look like the concept's???

and i love the way she sits one the road... makes me think theres a real beast coming for me! ready to run me down, and then run me down again!
and what is wrong with the tail lights? over hear we dont have to have the yellow lights, but i wouldnt complain if we did! they dont look that bad!

Excuse me??????????
Stupid cops?????????
I can understand how you might not agree w/ a law that might be "stupid." But, don't generalize on something like this. My wife and kids sure as HELL care about this "stupid cop" who basically puts his life on the line everyday when I put on my uniform.

Orthae, welcome to the site! I bet you anything it'll be going to Oz...and the headlights will most likely be just like the concepts if not better. I'm sure GM took the mufflers into account. I doubt they will scrap on speed bumps. I don't know about the engine bay. I bet there will be a nice engine cover, but it's not going to be just like the concept...adds too much to the cost.

Tag, I was going to post something similar, but coming from you it has more "punch".

Anyway, take a look at the pic here....anyone else notice the alignment of the decklid with the rear quarters? You see how it doesn't appear to line up? Do you think this is just a pre-production issue or with the edge of the decklid really not lineup above the taillights?

SSNIGHTMARE · 04-09-2008, 11:56 AM

It kind of looks like the whole deck lid is tweeked. The right side of the deck like looks higher than the quarter panel.

*DGthe3* · 04-09-2008, 12:01 PM

looks like it was damaged, that could be the cause

*GTAHVIT* · 04-09-2008, 12:23 PM

^ Yup, there a dent in the middle of the truck lid just above the tail lights. Dragon spotted it I think.

Supermans · 04-09-2008, 12:36 PM
