I wonder if the Pontiac will share other similarites with the E60 such as an electronics system that drains the battery producing a myriad of fault codes during the discharge.

Yes yes and MORE

For all they are trying to do, American cars will always be just that...American cars. It's obvious their business practices are skewed. Even when we don't want to own one, now every American tax payer is giving them lot's of our money...

OMG...that is some funny sh!t....

For everyone's interest, this is an import from Holden Australia. There all over the place here in Australia because there're bang for your buck. I must admit they look good in the flesh but they are not very well regarded for their build quality and refinement.

US get it rebadged as a Pontiac and new grill. For the birth car goto this link. http://www.holden.com.au/www-holden/action...ew?modelid=4006
