Holden Efijy Concept car (badass or not?)

Just saw this in the new Hot Rod magazine. Unlike the uninspired GTO (aka Holden Morono.. oops Monaro!), these Aussies might have the right idea this time around.

Thumbs up Re: Holden Efijy Concept car (badass or not?)

But I doubt it will ever become a reality.

It's the only cool car they have though, the rest looks like crap!

Absolutely gorgeous. Unfortunately, it will never be built...

I agree, Chevy has had trouble selling the SSR truck and I doubt they'd sell the few they'd make of this ride, basically a reskinned Corvette.

But its proof that the facination with retro-looking yet modern-performing cars is a global thing. Maybe this car could influence GM-USA styling in the future. With most bland GM and Ford's not selling, thier designers need to look at classic USA designs for inspiration like Holden (and DCX) did and ignore what the asians are doing.
