We badly needed the tudor for NHRA Pro Stock. I was getting worried when the G6 first came out that there wouldn't be a tudor model. That wouldn't have worked out well for the Pontiac Pro Stock drivers, and I figured GM wouldn't use the GTO since it's a low-volume car. I'm glad to see these pics!

Thanks for putting that thought in my head! Heck, they started at the roofline and went back.....

At least the G6 doesn't have the "jelly bean" profile that the Solara has....

The company I work for makes a bunch of parts for that car, including the painted front and rear fascias.

That's a red Solara parked next to G6 in the first photo..

Looks like another GM/Toyota platform sharing deal.

I agree, the weird curves of the Solara give that impression.

The G6 uses the platform from the Saab 9-3.
