The new corvette and this Chevy do show some nissan borrowing. A lot of cars have been showing some nissan brrowing, especially from the GT-R. but you can't ignore an affordable v8 sports sedan. Chevy is picking up where the G8 left off. The G8 @ $35,000 was one hell of a machine. It put a hurting on the M5 for half the price.

The end of pontiac killed two entries with potential. The pontiac solstice. The pro was it had an untra-responsive engine with matching transmission. The down was numb steering and un-sports suspension. Nothing that KW couldn't fix but, it should have been better stock. If that car was able to evolve to the year 2013 and get these brand new GM sports suspensions. The solstice I think would be a hit today.

The ressurection of the G8 through the SS. I think is a breakthrough for v8, domestic autosports. To bring back a piece of our recent past that could've easily been left buried based on the economic/gas crisis.
The G8 was GM's first come back car, along with the GTO. These were the first two cars I respected in GM since the 92 camaro and 96 impala. This is great news imho, in spite of some resemblences to the GT-R that at least four other companies are guilty of.
