A glimpse of the future?



Is it just me, or does the tag on the front of the car say "Lumina"?

It's GM. They give you what they tell you, you want. And apparantly we want a lot of crappy 4 door rental cars.

that's the same car we had in the US called a Pontiac G8 lol, i would've loved to have done a Chevy lunina nose with the VXR8 styling package and watch how many people say OMGWTFBBQ when i take it to a show here in the US where we get the bland styling

Very cool! Just what so many people were asking for. The return of the Pontiac G8, but with a Chevy badge on it.

"Chevy SS Performance" seems like a car without a true model name. Chevy is the make. And traditionally, "SS Performance" would be a trim line of the model. But at least it's not a freakin number. I'm not a fan of having a number as your model name.
