I like it a lot as well. I could change a few things here and there but overall a VERY nice car.

One of the small changes would be to put the arrowhead in the vent like on the Solstice, I saw one in traffic the other day and it just looked like a nice touch.

I thought the opposite would be true , but I do think the Pontiac looks better than the Holden . They did a fantastic job .

Wait till I see the full pic before deciding which looks better. Hey has anyone else picked up that the optional stripes on Commodore SS finish just before the G8 hood scoops?. Coincidence or will there be stripes on the G8?

Save the grille and tailights, the Commodore and G8 have the same body.

Remember how I was raving about the Commodore's design between drooling fits a few months ago after seeing them in person?

Seems like it's going to become an epidemic.

Sure as hell hope not. That's the kind of tacky stuff pontiac is supposed to be stepping away from.

looks better, looks worse .... you know, it's all very subjective. That said, if the Americans here prefer the G8 over the Commodore, and the Australians vice versa, then it seems to me that the stylists have done their jobs very well in creating the localised versions of the same car.
