hey anyone see the HOT WHEELS Overbored 454? a 2dr. SS concept???

okay take a look at this, I think HOT WHEELS has got the right direction on where design should go with new products..as what everyone is about at GM , they got the Hot Wheels Muscle Tone to what I would say is a good blend of a 5th gen Camaro..now the Chevelle and Overbored 454 looking alike take a look



http://www.joesdiecastshack.com/chev454.htm

now take that pic of the Overbored 454 and match it up to the SS concepts, looks like a 2 door SS concept with some tweekin to make it into a Chevelle..by looks of this SS sketch..

drawing..http://www.gmhightechperformance.com...res/gm0103_ss/

Now take into consideration for artistic diffrences and also not getting sued or something I guess..or making it look more like a chevelle..the car does have a striking profile to the SS concept and came out about 6 months before the SS concept pics made print.so this car maybee was designed by drawings of this SS car..someone got him them early...or..you think Hot Wheels has someone who can draw on the side actually working at GM design studios and posting concepts there for Hot Wheels cars??? looks close enough for me....
