Headlining the event will be Pontiac with three world premiere vehicle introductions
GM Media Online
Those close to NY Auto Show with cameras will be amply rewarded (with satisfaction of bringing fresh pics to the forum)
Expected for certain
1. G8 ST (Ute or new ElCamino)
Possible
2. GXP version of G8, which is tentatively scheduled for later in 2009 model year
Likely
3. Targa Solstice. It's tan, it's rested, it's ready.
Also possible, but unlikely as probably not quite ready for prime time
4. 2010 G6 either refreshed on Epsilon or all new on Alpha, jury is still out.
Unlikely as the first version has just appeared
5. GTO based on new Holden Coupe 60, two door intermediate spawned from VE Commodore, teh G8 as we know it.
Definitely not
6. Wagon version of G8

Oops, I meant tanned (recalling Nixon)
Would anyone buy a
tan Solstice? Or even Miata
Brown ?

If Yellow is "Mean", and red is "Agressive", what's brown?
"Anal"?

I'm going to be extremely disappointed if that targa doesn't appear at the show...
I'm getting very... tired... of... holding... my... breath....

I predict some on here will declare it the best thing ever, and others will declare it's not what they wanted.
How do I predict that... well, one... I've been on here a long time, and two... well, let's say I don't have to go to New York to know what it looks like.

This might sound a bit strange... but I'm not a ragtop man. Never have been.
I bought my Solstice in spite of the fact that it's a convertible, because I loved the rest of the car too much.
I'm a coupe man. A targa is close enough... If they get it right, I will be trading mine for the targa as soon as possible.

If this comes out I wonder if it will be available in both NA and GXP versions or a version all on its own. Wonder what the price would be.
