Lightbulb Holden Cruze A9X mashup

http://performancedrive.com.au/holde...send-off-0817/

These renderings were done by Nikked from here, he's done an awesome job I reckon, but what do you guys think of the idea?

I think he needs to research what deep dish wheels are.

I think he also needs to know the difference between a 2 door A9X and a 4 door SLR 5000

Hell no! That's an absolute insult to the SLR.
Shove the cruze. It was nothing but overated crap by holden from the start. It deserves NOTHING.

Good old GM styling mixed with Contemporary Euro. Holden did admittedly make some nice looking vehicles prior to 1979. The Cortina didn't quite cut it in the looks department and looked liked something grandpa or a pastor would drive in comparison.

Yep but the A9X only had 13k on it, probably the dumbest decision I ever made

I suspect these were just quickly thrown together, the front wheels in particular seem pretty rough with the flared guards.

Am I the only one who reads the title of this thread, mistakenly, as "Holden Cruze A9X Mishap"?

A Freudian slip perhaps?
