I checked out the other pics – still looks like a Charger!
I own a Charger, and this defineatly smacks of it.

Apparently whoever does their renderings needs to go back to school. A G8 rendering that looks like a Dodge Charger with a Pontiac grill is pretty funny, especially since the two cars look nothing alike.

Kinda looks like the Dodge Charger

Is this basically the same body as the Holden/Vauxhall Monaro?

it looks like the charger with a pontiac frunt end

I know the actual car they are making is not a charger, but the overall proportions and silouhette of that car is a charger for sure. The front end is too vertical and the overhands are all wrong for the G8. You can tell just by looking at the hood vents that something is wrong…they dont match the curvature of the hood at all. I just don’t understand why this picture was used to promote that car. Totally bizarre

I like the posterized effect in the rendering.

The grill, headlights, basically the nose of this car is a return to better styling that I think had fallen off a bit with the post-’03 model year Pontiacs (except the Solstice and GTO). Headlights got too large and grilles took on funny shapes.

To Pontiac’s defense, the amount of visual appeal designs have flows in and out like the tide from generation to generation and their rides didn’t end up looking ugly, well not for most.

sexy.

I think this car would sell.

Looks like a charger and a G8 eloped and gave birth to this.
