I still think the damn car needs a proper name. It basically rules out any V6 model if they wanted to do one (which, if equipped with the LFX from the Camaro, would still make a decent sports sedan).

I figure GM thinks that would steal sales from Impala.

A bizarre custody battle between the children of automotive legend Carroll Shelby and the last of his seven wives has left his body stuck in a Dallas County morgue.

In AU they are all telling me the next generation of Commodores are going green and horror of horrors for any self respecting Aussie FWD. I am still trying to figure out how the USA gets a rompin stompin RWD SS sedan and the Aussies get a 4cyliner FWD? That might be why we are going to have to wait more than a year.

It is sad to see the family deal with loss and a power struggle. The man deserves to be put to rest and not sit on a slab in a morgue :(
