Looks decent...

Nice sleeper, I guess.
It lacks the 'rawr!' value of the G8 GT.

Styling = boring, but that's been true for all Chevy sedans for the last 40 years

With a little luck, the SS variant will pump a little adrenaline into the rather anemic styling...but any excuse to bring in a rear-drive V-8 Holden gets my "thumbs up". Go Bob.

total fail. if they revive the caprice, at LEAST make it look like the old school model, not this new aborted fetus of a fetus. this further proves what I've known for awhile. GM is shit.

Aren't you an angry little man. :lol

The G8 may be a little bland in the exterior styling dept, but the interior, chasis, and engine more then make up for it. To call a 6.0L sedan an aborted fetus is a bit far fetched.

But who is really going to be motivated to buy it if it doesn't look good? Performance isn't enough, IMO.

See this is the problem with Chevy. They produce boring-looking stuff.

They'd have been a lot better off if they just took the existing G8 and rebadged it, without any styling changes. The G8 looks alot better than this turd.

I think the lumina looks as good as the G8
