The picture were taken in Austrailia and that was there version of the El Camino, Those things are LS powered! It would be nice to have one here instead of that overpriced SSR.

man that thing looks really clean, hell yeah that over the SSR anytime. Man that website hsv has some really clean cars. so if they are gm why don't they have some of these cars here. I'd think they would be big hits. Tempted to bring one over, when I have some money.

I thought the interior looked bitchin in the concept drawings. Here it looks really cheap. I hope they fix that. I'm actually surprised they're keeping that styling at all.

Hope that's not the interior in those pics. Instrument panel looks like a pair of spectacles, or like I should be looking through a periscope.

I still like the outside, but I think the interior looks like a designer was up too late and did too many drugs when he thought it up....

They should do something clean and refined.... not retro on crack. Look at my Mazda's interior... it flows well and no huge ***** hanging out anything...
