The Camaro that Holden is testing is actually a white VE sedan body with the rear doors welded shut and some big flares to accomodate the wider track.

There were pics of it Carsguide a few weeks ago. It may have even had a smaller wheelbase.

I saw those pics too but I have also seen it near Fishermans bend coming out on to the freeway. Didn't look any shorter than a regular VE to me but I only got a quick look before it got away.

Nope, definitely the same body as displayed at the Motorshow. It was way too angular to be a VE.
