Pontiac G8, and GTO has a chassis and the design which came from Holden (Australian automaker). It's pretty much not a pontiac lol ... Buick now took over and is doing the same thing, using Holden's chassis and design on some of their new flagship cars.

I bet some of you guys didn't know that! =) ... you guys didn't think Pontiac did this so good on their own, did you???

Thank god Canada never got the commodore though.

GM has always shared platforms with European companies and over seas auto makers. Take the Opel Omega for example, just a Cadillac Catera.

Was that positive camber in the front on those G8's or are my eyes just playing with me?

I was just about to say what about Elvis lol

It's not natural to the body lines I guess, or the cars are ugly to begin with.

I could never understand modified Crappaliers and Sunflowers, like sure econoboxes have been modded a lot in the last 2 decades but c'mon.
