Did the guy who posted 34 mpg say if it was US gallons or UK gallons? If it was UK gallons then it would be around 40 mpg (US)

The G8 used a non-SIDI variant of the 3.6. The Commodore in Australia has the 3.0L SIDI and I think the 3.6L SIDI. Their 3.0L is different from ours though, doesn't suffer from lack of torque at low RPMs.

And the guy converted from KM/100 miles to MPG.

So....potentially (but following this story I'm not holding my breath), FOUR RWD Chevy's and three of them on Zeta?

Impressive....but not so CAFE-friendly. The Volt better sell in spades to balance the equation!

Holden is now denying that the Statesman will be imported. We shall see.

Holden is denying the parent company can have a fit of schizophrenia and change their minds....yet again?
