anxious to see the non "show" version, should still be a good looker and quite the 4DSC with the GT's V8. Can't wait to take it for a drive. -Brian |

Did I miss anywhere if the rear seats will fold down like in the current GP GXP? That was a deal-maker for me!

Replying to: rmozol (Feb 19, 2007 10:05 am) And the stated "Cargo Volume" lists only a single number ( 17.5 cu ft ) where typically it would list 2 numbers if the seat(s) folded.... So - I believe it is unlikely, but not impossible... - Ray No rear seats in current 'ride' to fold up or down...

Replying to: rayainsw (Feb 19, 2007 10:47 am) I think it has something to do with the positioning of the fuel tank. Someone asked ages ago if it will have AWD. No, the position of the steering rack is to far forward of the motor. As for passing crash tests, Yes, the car has a 5 star rating. This car is as solid as rock. I wish I could show you the DVD I have on the development and testing of the chassis and body. It impressed the hell out of me

Replying to: paisan (Feb 13, 2007 7:05 am) The cars ECU does sense the higher octane and adjusts for it. I have not heard of a car down here that doesn't. Except maybe some carburetted old hack. Even my old 1985 VK Commodore with a 3.3 litre straight 6 that had Bosch Jetronic fuel injection fitted was able to,"learn".

Replying to: paisan (Feb 21, 2007 6:16 am) Who knows maybe they can figure something out. I'm hoping they will bring the Holden Statesman over and build it here as the Pontiac G10/Bonneville  Holdenguy, doesn't the Statesman have AWD as a option ???? Rocky

Replying to: rockylee (Feb 24, 2007 12:37 am) I've seen a few getting around lately. A guy at work who's buddy has one has done a zero to 60 mph time of 4.65. Now that's not to bad

Replying to: holdenguy (Feb 24, 2007 6:54 am) I right now am leaning torwards a 07' GMC Sierra Denali Pick-up. I'm going to look further into the Denali this next month. If I don't go that route the HSV G8 and 08' CTS, 09' CTS-V will still be on my radar. Rocky |
