New VE Commodore..Caught on Road

A few pics of the all new "Australian Designed" and made (yeah sure) Holden VE Commodore due for release here in August.

Note the front fender bulge...or Mazda-bulge!

Looks like something nice is under that slight coverup, but....FOR THE LOVE OF GOD...do you see the rear wheel...THE SAME DANG PROBLEM the Mustang has, wheels should be at the corners man...dang it.

The Commodore's *** just keeps going and going and going...geezzzz

Still, I'd love for GM to bring a sports sadan over to the US...well, I guess the Impala is that car.

Ugly? It looks very tough looking and aggressive...other than the tail and placement of the rear tire I don't see why you think it's ugly.

Vette, Solstice, Sky, Aura, Tahoo/Surburban, the Saturn SUV...all those cars are pretty good looking to me????

Even the Impala, while Toyota like bland...is not an ugly car.

I don't know...I think the big 2 are waking up, quality will be the final test.
