So does the back seat fold down for trunk access?

I'm assuming that this car will keep dual power front seats being in the class that it is?

Not sure about the back seats but I saw the power controls for the front seat in some pictures. They looked exactly like the controls for GTO power seats.

The power is a plus, I remember when I first got my '97 Grand Prix GT and asked about a power passenger seat at the junk yard...they looked at me really funny and said they hadn't seen those.

Commodores have a ski hatch only (centre of back seat). All Commodores have some power adjustment, but base models have manual fore & aft adjustment

Power rear seats?

It says fold down rear seat "center" for long loads, thats great!! I miss that feature, fishing rods in trunk FTW.lol

If the back seat would fold down (so a dog or two could go back there), I would trade in my wife's Explorer in a heartbeat.

If I remember right, part of the gas tank is wedged between the seat and trunk, from looking at the VE shots from the assembly line. So they can't make it a fold down seat, same reason why mnay BMW's and Benz' don't have fold flat seats.

And do many BMW & Benz owners gripe about that? Not that I've ever heard.

That's because in addition to their BMW or Benz sedan they also have a ML350 or X5 ;)

And G8 owners probably already have a Denali.

And G8 owners probably already have a TBSS.

Fix.t :)

Same difference.

I dont know about that, the petrol tank is under the rear seats. There is an optional LPG tank behind the rear seats in the boot.. The reason the rear seats dont fold down I read is to improve rigidity.

Looking in the boot of a standard VE- the boot is very long making me think there isnt anything significant behind the rear seats.

I think it will be nice just to have a REAL trunk(boot) again !!

A real trunk is going to be nice... Having only a hatch gets old after a while. :bunny:

Anyone have pictures of the trunk?

Sure, but it's kind of dark:

The pic looks dark but looking closely one can make out the depth of the trunk. Not bad at all. I like the strut setup as well.
