Yea, verily. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the first preprod at the
auto show, and the production version is, if anything, even uglier.

Unfortunately, like the Titanic, they plowed ahead and produced the thing

I'd say it was the worst (looking) vehicle the General has ever foisted on

There were some pretty heinous ones back in the 70's, thought this one looks

Now why can't GM import a LHD version of the Holden Commodore to America?
Now there's a decent car.

Yes, indeedy. I don't know what's wrong with these people. If there's
anything Americans like, it's big cars with WAY too much power (if there is
such a thing)
