Is that model here? WTF? I've never seen it advertised. That actually looks pretty cool. If I was in the market for a 4 door sports sedan, I would actually consider it.

Middle East car I love this car. It is the same as the G8, but a Chevy. I like it better though....

 

[dshane]

Sports Saloon??? Does that mean its the best place to drink and catch a game?

Another fine GM product.

GM is selling the Zeta platform all over the world. GMNA unfortunatly is near the bottom of the list on priorities for receiving these cars.

Yup, this car went on sale in the Middle east at the same time as the VE Holden Commodore went on sale in Australia.

But you can buy a grille and some badges from GM Arabia (or a third party that sources parts from there) and convert your Pontiac G8 GT into a Chevy Lumina SS.

Do you have any links to a place that sells them. I have tried to find them, but have only found the grille and that was on Ebay AU.

JHP sources conversion parts - http://www.jhp.com.au
They source parts for Holden conversions and Chevy conversions.

Yeah go with JHP. I've purchase items from them. GREAT service. You could E-mail them but, get an international calling card and call them up. It's worth it just to talk to people who know what customer service is.

Thank you :thumbsup: that is great. Am I missing something or are the bumpers not on there site?

 

[USA1Camaro]

Just give them a call. The Chevy might be using off the shelf Holden parts. They've got the hook on most items you want.

 

[brandonppr]

Your right. They look to be the same bumpers as the Holden.

Wow that is nice, they even have the air bag. I didn't expect that much.

 

[USA1Camaro]

Those are Aussie dollars pricing as well. It will be a little cheaper in US dollars but shipping of large parts like front clips can be a PITA and the wallet.



People who don't like the idea of a Pontiac G8 Sport Truck can find parts to make it look like a Chevy.

The bowtie looks sooooooo much better on those things.

 

[gavin]

ya wtf happened? i would buy a lumina or a lumina with a bed over a G8 any day that machine looks shweet!

Homemade El caminos and america impalas. Screw the lumina nameplate; I would try to forget the lumina.

 

[Luwinkle]

I don't want the Impala to be yet another Commodore knockoff, Jinx. Don't want to drag the name through anymore mud. Now the Lumina..drag that all one wants.

 

[Jinx]

I said homemade, not factory made. Just saying if they dont make a zeta impala, I would make a homemade one if I had a G8. I prolly use the holden senator rear parts though; it has the quad-like light setup and ducktail molded spoiler.

 

[Luwinkle]

If you put an Impala badge on the back of it, it'll have the same effect.

 

[Jinx]

Its a rebadge of a different brand regardless. I rather have a vintage name like Impala, versus the lumina (with the bad taste in mouth still from the 90s).
It would be a custom job no matter what, I would do it, and could care less of a person's opinion.
