It's nice to see that at least part of Pontiac, or Holden, lives on.

Actually they are doing that right now in Australia. I just saw an article on it, not sure on the production date. It might be a model for 2012, so maybe this spring. IIRC they are billed it as the fastest “truck” made in Australia.

I bet it's going to be the Caprice. Or something along the lines of that...maybe even a Malibu SS since the old ones were huge anyways.

**TLSheff** · 11-23-2010

Oh god I hope not, probably, but I HOPE NOT...

**noreasonwhyy** · 11-23-2010

i hope SO.

GM will move further development of the architecture for next-gen Zeta-based cars to Detroit

nice...

Interesting article. It really doesn't surprise me that GM will transform a loved by a dis-solved brand name and move it to a current label. I'm actually surprised we did not see it earlier.

**nawarkk** · 11-23-2010

I hope they don't fvck up the look of it too bad..

**Lsick7** · 11-23-2010

It probably will be a Caprice. The new Caprice PPV is already slated to hit in March. And thank God it's coming.

**coreygnar** · 11-23-2010

im pretty sure it will be named the caprice ss(equivelent to the gxp) with a shorter wheel base than the police one

**Koniig** · 11-23-2010

Hallelujah lawdy lawdy!

**acammer** · 11-23-2010

Thank goodness - we gave up the Solstice and the G8 when Pontiac died, good to see at least the G8 making its way back, that car is definitely on my short list for future rides.

**SilvaMan61** · 11-23-2010

good news. im gonna be so pissed if they fvck it up

**Spartan GL** · 11-23-2010

I'd still want the G8 GXP vs the Chevy version!

**matt5112** · 11-23-2010

Old news is old

What i dont get is why they dont get those lazy asses at GM oshawa to go from one shift to three and produce the "G8" along side the camaro...

Unless of course they've ramped up production from 1 shift to 2 or 3.

My inside source quit the job lol.

And to everyone else, just be lucky we are GETTING a RWD sedan back. Dont hold your breath on it being a coupe, being aggressive, or to go on a diet. Not gonna happen.

You guys act like it's old news, but confirmation of the states getting a civilian version of a zeta sedan was really rocky since rumors have been flying left and right forever. I digress. But the new chevy version shown Is sexy, I can't lie. It looks like the commodore ve exactly and to me the ve is stupidly eye catching. And if gm has any sense at all, the SS would have a new front end resembling the HSV version or even something new. Also a lot of speculation revolving around the car point to maybe not even using the VE platform of the commodore and waiting to use the new VF coming in Australia.
