Anyone notice that these are the HSV wheels?

I think that you are looking at not only the Grand Prix replacement, but also the GTO replacement.

They looks like the HSV Clubsport R8 wheels (19") which are the same design as the GTS wheels just smalled. The brakes are from HSV as well. Headlights look a little HSV like as well. That aint the base model

And people slammed it for having "Solstice-like" styling.

It may technically be no model. It may debut as a very mild concept. Like maybe only 2-3% non-production.

Its kind of funny how poor old "left for dead" Pontiac will have the first Zeta car in North America. By nature, I'm an anti four door kind of guy--wait, I was an anti four door kind of guy... It should be nice, but heavy
