    Gotta say, I'm not a fan of all the chrome - and the wheels, though better, are still a mistake - They look like they're polished super sports. Polishing them wasn't necessary.

    Are these actual press released pics or the obligatory "We're not too sure this is what it's going to look like but we're going to say it definitely is so we can sell more copies" Wheels/Motor mag chops that seem to come about every 6 months or so?

    Chrome is for luxury cars and just looks tacky on these red line editions.

    Like the old saying "if it don't go, chrome it"...

    IMO the chrome trim looks too Grandpa Calais'ish.

    Wheels, hmm, dunno. They look better than the previous G8 leftovers but I can see some bargin's for future eBay dwellers.

    Apart from that, I wonder if the designers/engineers addressed any of the current MY11 issues????

    Blacked out where all the chrome is, that's what the Redline needs!

    I really like those wheels compared to the oldies, but not the chrome, Would be much better painted silver or something..

    The chrome strips are only stuck on. A bit of work with a hair dryer and they should just pull off.

    The wheels are a 20" verion to the current 19' SSV series 2 wheels. As for the brembo brakes it would look a lot nicer if they updated the rear caliper (brembo also).
    If your not living life on the edge, then your taking up space!
