What do you think? This image is a VE based chop, and I think it look quite good.

Interesting...

With the way the Americans bitched about it being a Holden with a Pontiac badge last time I think it will have to be more way more different to the VE than that render is. Or it wont sell. Seems the only way they will accept the Commodore is if they can buy a Commodore complete with Holden badges, that's the idea I get over and over again reading the American forums

From that angle, I reckon the front looks like an EVO !! And for a two-door, the shape of the roof line and rear pillars should be much sexier.

Doesn't do much for me...

I agree with this bit.

But I reckon the roofline looks bloody awesome! If I had the money, I would get it!

yeh think i need to see another angle, looks a bit strange from that angle.

still haven't done anything with the bonnet, ok it has scoops but their not very pronounced and agressive, need sumthing done to it like wat ford has done with the xr8 ( only thing they have do well actually...lol )

and wats wid the massive side grill bit excessive i think, prolly look better with grill slits like old monaro style
thats my opinion

cheers
ryan

I see what you guys mean.

The guy who does the renders on that website's Australian though - it says it on the main page www.cgiautomotive.com

I for one think it looks bloody hot. I'm impressed with this work.

i think it needs to be a little shorter and maybe change the black to match the normal car colour

interesting job with them flipping the image to make it LHD but meh.

other than that the bonnect scoops need a little tweaking then i might like it.
not bad overall but doesnt quite tickle my fancy
