@ babymilo "the interior is made of cheap plastic and shodily put together" is a fairly broard statment. pls explain exactly what is cheap about it rather than throwing a random statment about. 13yr olds think maccas is quality food so i know @ your tender age you know nothing about quality.

excuse me, i think that maccas is disgusting food and so do alot of 13yr olds... and if you look at the old commodore you will see that build quality has gone down... plus asking $60 000AUD you could get a decent european car for this price with alot better build quality and not as much bad feeling plastic eg. VW passat, alfa romeo 159, MB c class, volvo s60 and i think that these cars have better style

You still didn't answer any of my points just rattled off a few euro car names as a compairsion. As i said before 13yr olds now nothing about quality.

no well you see, if you compare the bits you touch in the commodore/g8 to the euro cars i mentioned personally i find that the euro cars have a nicer and higher quality feel to them. and what are you on about when you say that 13year olds have no idea about quality

Babymilo if you don't understand my comment about 13yr olds you must be dim. I can't make it any easier to explain. as for the Commodore it's sold all over the world whithout any quality issues espesially in the middle east which are very fussy about their cars. And you said "PERSONALLY" i find the quality nicer so its only the opinion of a 13yr old not the 1000s of ppl who have bought them. And i will say it again 13yr olds think maccas is quality food so they know nothing quality.

well my original comment was based on my own opinion... isnt that what comments are supposed to be your own opinion??? and as i stated before most 13year olds dont think that maccas is good food... so i think that you should give us more credit than you are becuase we arent as stupid and ignorant as you think we are

You know the G8 doesn't look so bad, it's too bad they are going to cancel that car in a couple in a year or so, but the Solstice really needs a new front end, the car it self isn't so bad, but the headlights and the intake grill is ruining the car. The Saturn version looks so much better, maybe pontiac should take some design que's from them.

"reborn el camino", that is one sweet looking car, probably going to be a big hit with the tuners down under and in the american market.

FYI ... the "reborn el camino" aka Holden Ute is already a huge hit down under with sales of more than 10,000 already in 2008

After closure inspection of the G8 GXP, I've got to add that even though I like the car, this concept ain't so bad if it wasn't for the influence from Cadillac, just looking at that front bumper makes me think that, but not to bad either way. Also those rims rims me of the Holden concept that came out last year I think, I could be wrong, but I fairly certain they are.

At last Pontiac have got the look right with the front of this GXP SEMA concept ... it's now showing the same balanced design of the original Holden face, done simply by changing the overly deep twin grilles for ones that align with the headlight depth ... it's a huge improvement and should to be used on the next facelift model IMHO.

Well yes everybody is entitled to their own opinion and i still think your wrong about the Commodore's quality and you only need to visit any food court at any shopping centre to see 13yr olds ramming Maccas into their pimply little heads.
