The Commodore looks set to regain its drawl, with US exports of the iconic Australian large car imminent, writes Bruce Newton.

The Holden Commodore appears odds-on to return to the US with a Chevrolet badge and it should happen within the lifespan of the current model.

A senior engineer for General Motors, Al Oppenheiser, confirmed to Drive at the Los Angeles motor show this week that negotiations were under way to sell the Commodore in North America as a Chevrolet sports sedan

Still Holden on to the dream.

**** thats nice, all the ones they made pontiacs/G8 or whatever looked ugly as hell to me, still would look better with no badge, mirrors look crappy and the reflectors in the bumper look out of place.

Would love to see more pics of this though.

Love the bonnet, the GTO ones are gay.

To all the people who have Chevrolet badges, time for payback to the nay Sayers.

Ps: Chevrolet badges are still gay as aids.

No, see Chevrolet don't export Commodores to Australia, its the other way around. So putting the badge on an Australian Commodore is retarded.

Both manufactures are apart of the GM tree, It would make logical sense to have GM badges over Chev.

Just read over the comments.

"If this gets exported and sold in the US with a Chevrolet badge, I wonder if the owners will replace that badge with a Holden one? We could start up an exchange program.
