More spypics of the new Holden VE (& Pontiac?)

Thanks going to "Northstar" at Chearsandgears.com, who found them.

Been hearing lately I'm barking up the right tree on Holden as Pontiac.

What is the length and width of the VE Commodore?

Judging by the pictures, it appears a bit larger than the BMW 3 series and a bit smaller than the 5 series. Which I think would be the ideal size for a RWD replacement (though in smaller volumes) for both the G6 and Grand Prix.

I like the styling, subdued but taut, it's what BMWs would probably look like today if Bangle hadn't of happened. I can certainly see that as a Pontiac G8/Buick Regal.

Holden hasn't released the figures yet. But it should be similar to the current model -- maybe a bit wider for improved side impact safety.

I agree that this is a great size for a Grand Prix sedan. 9" shorter for a V6-only RWD G6 replacement, please, GM

Yeah I know that. But my thing is... if its custom for that car, why does every other bra, that is custom made for a model, fit so crappy. There isn't that much difference between each individual car.

Just occured to me when looking at that. I would never have a bra on a car anyway.
