    Not sure I follow.

    Holden probably has a warehouse full of G8 hoods and fronts which they made here to go onto future G8 exports......exports get cancelled.......Hmmm throw away all those parts or put them onto a Holden Special Edition.

    One benefit I see is that once G8 parts go onto a production Holden, then what were previously "export only" spare parts become readily available Australia wide.

    It should in effect extend the spare parts availability for you guys with G8's in USA for whatever G8 common parts end up on new Holdens.

    The main reason I looked at my car was because of watching "Australian V8 Supercars" on Speed TV! Which they stopped showing after I bought it.
