I love our new G8 GT. It seems to be a really nice car thus far. May be a different story at 75k miles but that is a ways off :-). I've got my fingers crossed.
I think they'll keep the G8 but just rebage it. They already sell it as other models around the world. I think it would be super awesome if they brought it back as the Chevelle. Instead of GXP it would be Chevelle SS. But of course they'd need to make a 2 door coupe though. They had a Holden coupe concept I think but I doubt they'll do it to keep away competition from Camaro. Not to mention the G'ment wants us all to drive lunch boxes  .

He is right!
Buick is big in China.
They took the Buick regal (midsized) and made it into a limo. They did a RH drive and added a little leg room in the rear. Most coporate types all have limo drivers and this allows them to still get luxury and drive into parking structures at a lower cost. We did the Redesign when I was employed at a small engineering company in Troy Michigan. I had to make a few trips to California for the clay modeling along with the engineers.
It was a nice car.
