New Camaro Ute

[hewey]

Given the interest in Aussie utes I thought some of you guys might like this GM Holden Commodore ute which has been customised with a Camaro inspired front end.

and a standard SS ute (the mild sports offering) for comparison

those are tight!

how come GM only sells motorized shipping containers here? we gotta go to Mexico to get a decent GM ute..... :roll:

Man that is SWEET! Why don't they sell those in the states? Badge that baby as an El Camino and they'd sell like Elgin Bluebirds!

Thats cool...
The agressive camaro-nose looks waaaaay better on the ute than the original with the 'euro-look'... Is this a one-off custom or are there kits available?

From what I've read it'll be sold as a kit, and all the parts (lights, grille etc) are all factory GM.

Some people may not know this, especially if you are an American:

The Holden Commodore was fully designed on the free time of the Aussie designers working for Holden. When Holden approached their design staff for a new sport oriented car, the Holden designers said "We already have one".

The '04-'06 Pontiac GTO and the new Camaros are based on the platform of the Holden Commodore.

Thanks Australia.
