turbo I-4 ?!?!?
i don't know about that one

 

[John Wilde]

I like it better than the GTO.
This looks pretty nice!

I like it! But GM, if they do release it, will probably screw it up like Ford did with the new Mustang coming out.

 

[Captain Mark]

Cool, I wish I had one with an LC2 in it!

 

[KEVINS]

Not bad.. I would make minor changes but overall: 2 thumbs up!

I like the styling, but for it to be a Nomad, it needs to be a V8 wagon more like Dodge's Magnum. They're going the wrong direction. Turbocharge the Vibe is that's what they want, cheaper than a new car line, but I'd prefer a wagon-based hot rod alternative to minivans and SUVs.

Better yet, stuff a LS6 or at least the SC 3800. It could be the new flagship for the reintroduction of the station wagon. I hate all of this cross over BS that has come out in the last couple of years. Remember when everybody had wagons. The station wagon was invented here in the U.S. It would be nice if GM brought back at least one traditional wagon.

That thing is tiny. It's mini cooper with a long hood.

250 HP turbo 4, RWD and 13" Brakes would kick some serious butt, however.

Hopefully Lutz will keep it from being 190 Hp, supercharged with 10" brakes when it's built.

Yeah, same here!

It could be a GM flagship wagon IF it was a wagon. The back seats butt up against the back window. It's as much a "wagon" as a Honda CRX.

If they'd built it "larger scale" on a trailblazer frame it could take a V8. On the Solstice platform, it will likely weigh less than 2800 lbs fully loaded with options.

It does look like a fun car, but I was really hoping for the real wagon bit. If the Magnum does well (would do better with the concepts front end), maybe it'll get us family guys some fun cars coming around again.
If there's no rear cargo room, I'd rather have the Mini Cooper S. BMW interior, great price. Probably another GM concept that won't be heard from again. That is an interesting bit about the Solstice, sounded positive. Last I'd read they scrapped it.

Fugly no style typical late Chevy pos. Looks like they recently hired a bunch of designers from AMC.

GM needs to bring back the b body nuff said

I always did like the 53-55 Corvettes....This new fron end reminds me of the front end of the first Vettes.

This New platform is too small.

 

[Vendor Defendor]

well, the corvette (i dont know if it was a concept or an actual prodcution model) had an optional 'nomad' option, but then they later took it away from the corvette and put it towards the Bel Aire's

heres an orgional:
