For the last time.

G8 = VE Commodore.
SS = VF Commodore.

The changes are more than just a vastly improved interior and updated front/rear fascias. A good chunk of the suspension is completely new.

Constantly spouting that SS is just a rebadged G8 makes you sound really uninformed.

Honestly for the price of the new SS sedan they should have put a LT1 in it. You can find new SRT8 392 Chargers for less money and that doesn't make sense to me.
Commodore was never designed with LT1 in mind.
