Those Holden Utes are no joke. Z06 engine in a car that weighs less than the 5th Gen, and this was back in 2008. Sure, the import crowd will probably be the first to grab them up if they do come to the USA. We already have them, but not as Utes. They are Chevy Lumina CSV CR8 here in the Middle East and mid-sized sedans. We never had the US Lumina POS front-wheel drive. It all started with the Holden Monaro, which was brought over to the USA as the Pontiac G60 GTO for a few years, and then graduated to the front facade that you see with the Holden Ute. Can you see where the ZL1 front facade idea was taken from the CR8?
