Nice execution on an idea. damn, I hate chevy grilles, why don't they tone down or at least reproportion the chrome stripes. Makes all their cars look trashy and gimmicky.
There is a ton of PT carryover features: door handles in and out, symm dash with center bezel similar in layout...Even the rear cargo deck has a similar layout. I like the fender flares, they are more distinct than the PT's(at least the rears are sharper).

To me the PT always looked like a cool little retro station wagon, more car like than the HHR, which to me just looks like a tiny truck. I'm not a truck guy...never have been, never will be.

As for Nesbitt changing jobs, it strikes me that Chevy must have said something like "hey, you know that PT you did over at Chrysler? It's selling like hotcakes, has been for a while now. Make one for us, ok? Please? Just like it, only different, if you get my meaning!"

I like it, maybe even bigger then the Cruiser... However, I think the interior is not nearly as good looking.

Let's see if GM will offer warranty Stage kits. If they do, then it's off to GM I go.

They'll have to go turbo first. Is that in the future?

It looks like an Xterra!

I hate...HATE those fugly gold emblems on Chevy's cars. They ruin the front and rear of almost all of them. Colbalt included.
