Thoughts about Holden in Oz
Pontiac looks set to go bye-bye...
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/20/business/20pontiac.html Too bad. The G8 seemed like the American sport sedan to have. Hmmm...I wonder if this will have any bearing on Holden? After all, the Aussies build better American cars than Americans themselves.

Maybe a redo on the G8 line, rebadge it as a Chevrolet? That is, IF GM survives. I hope the 'Vette continues, even as a seperate entity.

I would think they'd keep the G8 and rebadge it as Chevy. Too much good press to ignore.

It's a crap shoot...a new "manager" of GM is now on the scene...
