Is it just me or are there two different designs going on for the D2SC Cruze?

In these shots, the Impala-esque character line over the rear wheel is very evident.

http://www.gmotors.co.uk/news/2015-c...let-cruze-4-2/

In these, the curve seems to disappear.

Now it could just be super clever camo or just the angle each photo was taken. Just odd to me.

I think its the camo & angle. Here is a shot from the gmotors site (pic 6)

You can see the top portion of the character line there, so I assume the 'build up' portion of it is just hard to discern amongst the camo jibberish.

Just something interesting I came across today. And no, not a Photoshop.

dumb question is there any plans on getting more hp in the new impala 300 is nice but more would be better how about awd and the twin turbo 6 from the XTS he he.

FenwickHockey65 · 02-22-2014, 07:28 PM

Only in our dreams.

If you want something sportier than the Impala, there's always the rear-drive SS sedan.

Is that a 2 door... with a split opening rear door?!?!?! where'd you find this thing and why was it never made?

FenwickHockey65 · 02-24-2014, 12:15 AM

Photos of it surfaced shortly after the GMT-800 SUVs went into production.

GM went as far as to develop prototypes but that's it.

Mikes SS · 02-24-2014, 01:35 AM

the new Cruze to me sure has some cues that remind me of a Scion...WTF?

the front nose slope down just doesn't fit the rest of the car IMO it's prius-like

FenwickHockey65 · 02-24-2014, 02:06 AM

Yeah I can tell you right now the D2SC looks nothing like that.

word at the time was to big of a blind spot right up the middle of the door. Safety first BS.

FenwickHockey65 · 02-24-2014, 08:50 AM

Except it was made.

was it special order only? My brother asked at dealer, Because has low old post beam garage with low beams that lift gate hit. was told he couldn't get one. Probably just another dealer misinformed or lying.

It's possible the option was discontinued sometime into the production run.
