Default 2012 monte carlo?

has anyone else seen this? i read awhile ago that the pontiac g8 would crossover to a chevy and this looks like this could be it. looks to be on the zeta platform shared by the camaro. what do yall think?

if its a 4 door like the g8 was it may not be. itll kind of be like having the charger and challenger. it would be nice though, especially if its rear wheel drive

i hope they come out with something like that with Monte Carlo name....only bad thing is i would want to trade mine in on one

but if it was a 4 door that doesnt really follow the traditional monte.....maybe it will be a lumina i would still want one

Probably not going to happen - the article is almost a year old.

That would be terrible. I would compare this to what GM did to the Nova.
