with performance that will outpace the latest Porsches and Ferraris.

Sounds kinda exciting. Will be cool to see an Australian built car really stick it to Ze Germans.

Gee another chump driven hero car that we need to put up with drag racing every skyline on the freeways.

Oh well we have another ego to crush I suppose.

Don't forget the new ford mustangs! I've already come across a few full blown spanners weaving in and out of peak hour traffic.

Hmm American muscle power plant in the iconic Aussie Commo.

Not sure how that might be received..

Anyone remember the reaction of Holden fans when the VL came out with the RB30.

They were disgusted at it, but much later became very popular as everyone slowly realised the potential of the RB.

Another mongrel Holden.

LS's are all american engines and been in holdens since the VTs.

Aussies have always loved the SB chevs since I think 1969 with the HT monaros.

And Chev have been rethinking the Camaro is well so we may yet see it in Aus......then we will all be able to buy 'new age' american muscle if we can afford it. And there is always the Camry :woot: for us poor downtrodden plebs.

But we all be driving Tesla's by then!!!
