The upper grill is the one I hate. Looks like that's gonna be an SS convertable.

Can anyone answer why the circle doesnt connect on the bottom of the HID's? It just looks weird.

I'd assume this is in Australia? It has the export taillights as well.

I don't think the lights were on in those pics. I think it was just reflections.

I think I'm OK with the size of the lower grille, I just wish it was recessed more.

I've been thinking that many of these Aussie cars aren't neccessarily V8s just because they have the SS V8 nose on them. Perhaps unlike the US and Canada, they're only getting one skin.

Looks like they went with round halos instead of the oval ones in the concept. Must have been for cost reasons.
