Mark Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Ugly, with a capital Ug. The platform probably won't allow for a very deep bed, so it'll wind up as the next generation SS-R.
62rebel Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 sure, GM needs to be bailed out every couple of years; this will trigger the next collapse.
Relic_Models Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Basically Camero parts glued onto a Holden Maloo. Guess it doesn't look to bad but truck/car things have never really done well in the U.S.
Atmobil Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 The biggest problem with it is the far to shot looking rear end and bed and the front (with the coupe-bit) is far to big. Could possibly have worked if they stretched it a bit between the rearend of the doors (B-pillar) and the infront of the rearwheels.
Snake45 Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 I like it, but it'll suffer the same fate as the SSR--lotsa interest, very few sales.
Relic_Models Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 I like it, but it'll suffer the same fate as the SSR--lotsa interest, very few sales. I was thinking the same thing, except I could even remember the name of it and one of my neighbors has one. Same issue with the Subaru Baja, as well.

Harry P. Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 I like it, design-wise, but don't see the point business-wise. If they sold a few thousand they'd be lucky. Too little mass appeal to make it a viable option.
pharoah Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 I don't really care for it. It wouldn't be enough of a truck to haul anything more than some groceries. Maybe they could make a station wagon out of it. Oh,that's been tried,too.
Chuck Most Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Why not? The SSR was such a raging success. Oh, wait...

cobraman Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 To me it looks ok but I don't believe it would be a good seller .
slantasaurus Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Why not, the back seat in a Camaro is useless anyway.
thatz4u Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 like Grandpa said "just because it can be done, doesn't mean it should be done"
ToyLvr Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Ugly, with a capital Ug. The platform probably won't allow for a very deep bed, so it'll wind up as the next generation SS-R. Yup; another winner from the corporation that brought us the Pontiac "Aztec".....
oldnslow Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 I agree, looks cool but about as useful as an SSR, 2 seats and a big trash can in back.
Tom Geiger Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) I dunno... GM Australia already had a great Ute that they've sold in places like South Africa and the Arab world as... get this... the Chevrolet El Camino! It would be cool to see it here in the USA. Note that when the manufacturers bring out these models... everything from the Viper, Prowler, 2 seater T-Bird and SSR, they're looking to put an image out there, not especially looking to make money on that car. And all three of these have held their values as used cars. Edited April 1, 2015 by Tom Geiger
Snake45 Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 And all three of these have held their values as used cars. Prolly because so few were sold as new cars.
Pim Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 ugly cars but I hope GM make this the platform fro the next commodore
chunkypeanutbutter Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Come up with a decent regular-sized truck first. The recent trucks have bigger cabs than beds. I would like to see a Ranchero Mustang, however, when the El Camaro comes out.
