Pontiac G8 Coupe details
Last month Holden celebrated its 60th anniversary with the unveiling of the Coupe60 concept car, a two door version of the VE Commodore sedan that many suspect will eventually spawn a successor to Australia’s Monaro Coupe.

Holden has denied rumors of a new Monaro, as well as its Pontiac GTO cousin for that matter, but a number of reports claim the Coupe60 is actually based on a former Pontiac design and that officials are now considering building the car.

Most of the engineering work is complete because under the Coupe60’s svelte sheet metal is Chevrolet Camaro running gear. Read Article

I like the idea of this being the G8 coupe. I think Pontiac should move AHEAD rather than backwards. They shouldnt tarnish the GTO nameplate anymore than they have. This, if it comes over here to the states, should indeed be badged as the G8 coupe. They already have that Sport Truck thing coming to the G8 line, so why not franchise?

The press seem to like the G8, but it looks dated to me... anyone see the previous generation Acura TL in the front end?
