    I do too. Contractors were here today, saw my G8 and raved about the car. One was quite familiar with it, as he had sold them at one time. He had a Demo GT. He thought it was the biggest mistake that GM had done, by doing away with the G8.

    Yes it looks like every other Holden VE on the road here.
    Test car or mule most likely because it doesn't look like its ever had front plates (required in all Aus states).
    Also looks like its covered in lots of small dents and scrapes.
    No stray badges or chrome where there shouldn't be chrome indicates it was never anything else than a 100% Holden from new.
