That will be nice if they make it look at least somewhat like that. That looks nice. :thumbs:

Hmm, I don't see any wheel gap. GM will never put it on the road. lol

:D :thumbs: that was my first thought! And of course the tires will be half as wide. Looks great! Though I would loose that silver bar all the way across the front and just have a plain black slatted grill with the Chev emblem like what is above and below the bar.

I agree. Look at BMW and Mercedes. One of the reasons those cars look so good is the lack of wheel-well gap. Its almost like they come already lowered. I wouldn't be surprised if Chevy produces that Mailbu, but the production model will probably have 15-16" wheels at best, and about 3 inches of wheel gap.

The sketch looks pretty nice. Hopefully
they use a variation of those rims. :)

It would look like the sketch if they put low profile tires on it and lowered the sus. around 1.5 inches. The photos are right on target though *especially the wagon*, but the sketch is more based on a GM performace version that they will come out with sometime around 2005 I'm guessing. I do know that they want to have a GM performance model in the line up.

Looks a bit like a Nissan. Pretty ugly.

The 350Z is a cheap copy of a Audi TT and a bit of 911, the two-door Honda Accord with the 240hp is ripping off sections from a Benz. So whats the big deal.

Plus if you look close you'll notice that these are the across the pond Opel's that are running around, just photochopped *the funky Chevy symbol on the front is a dead give away*to look like a Chevy, but it is real close to the real deal to be honest. Better than the sketch. I know the Mali. isn't going to stray far from the Opel exterior design.
