Where were these taken?
I can't tell from these shots - was there a window sticker on this car?
I see the Michigan MFR plate...
Thanks,

Just curious...

Great pics! These come from a dealer "ride and drive"? Where were you? Thanks again!:angel:

There was no window sticker but the gentleman that worked for Pontiac told me that this GT model with the seats/radio, etc. stickered at $31,500 and that the Base model would be $27k.

These were taken in Memphis, TENN. ESPN College Gameday was there and Pontiac is a sponsor so they had this car and some others out.

Did you get a chance to climb around inside and really check it out? What were your impressions? What about the general "public's" opinions? Ya post great pics, ya gotta have a story to go with it!:boink:

Everyone seemed to like it. A few people referred to it as a caddy or a saab and were impressed with the style and interior. Others walked by and said something about the motor . The inside was very comfortable and everything was in well reach. The seats had pretty good movement and bolstering. The seats are also heated which is a plus in the winter months. The radio was good and the gauges and dash layout was very nice as well, with a little monitoring station above the radio and good dash readouts. The rear seats had great room and size as well. Definitely will make a good family car, not just a 4 seater, unlike the GTO IMO since I have kids.

They seemed to make the ergonomics of the car better while retaining a muscle car feels still, but with some luxury and all w/o breaking the bank.

Here are some more interior shots for you guys.

Dang it, I knew I should have tried to get tickets for that game. Could have seen my car in person. :)

Nice pics.

Does anybody think the engine compartment and hood look ridiculously long? :eek2:

Man, I'm really starting to reconsider red, especially considering the ability for a matching interior.

This is by far the hottest Pontiac ride I have EVER seen. ^_^ I know I've said it before, but well done Holden. And Cheers to the Pontiac folks who made the effective modifications.

I don't care what anyone says, I love the whole look. Its a great moulding of Aussie and American design!!

Photos seem to stretch the hood - maybe because the whole car is deceptively big you have to use certain angles to capture the whole car. In real life the proportions are very - ummm - BMW-like.

Alright, good. The low-angle photos make the hood look 15 inches long and the high-angle makes it look.. 15ft long. :slap:

Funny you should say that! Its exactly the same thing the dealers rep I'm working with had to say! Think maybe that's intentional????!!!:us_flag: Oh, and thanks!:aus_flag:

This thought has never ever crossed my mind when viewing a Commodore from any angle. Maybe it's the Pontiacificaion of the VE you're seeing, but I strongly doubt it.

Didn't the new Edmunds article mention how long the hood on the Charger was and how much shorter the G8's was? Must be the camera angle?

The "fish eye" effect.

Pontiac, hurry up with my ST! Otherwise, I guess I'll need to pick the color for my GXP.

I want one without Kenny M across the front!
