I'll get more pictures when I go to the show. I may be able to get closer to that interior.

I don't hate the HUD, I just think its one of those 90'* things you can get over easily.

For me, not only is the hud really nice at night but its also one of those things that sets bonnies and a few other cars apart from the rest. Its fun to brag about it too. :P

<--- Not a fan of the G8. IMO, it'* pretty ugly, with the typical GM style queues: big, chunky plastic--especially in the interior. :?

Pontiac got the wheels directly from HSV. You think Nissan didn't copy them? Keep looking, similar designs have been around for a long time. There is only so many things you can do with a spoke and keep it structurally sound.

looks good, the taillights need to be improved. I think we can learn to live without Grand Prix
