was there ever a concept at a motorshow do you think?

Almost an Omega.
V8 Holden Commodores with LS1 engines are here and plentiful many turbocharged or supercharged as well. Wish I had the money to bring one back with me when I return in April. I have looked into the cost but too prohibitive, anyway couldn't afford to run one in UK. Shame.

there was one planned but it got scrapped, here is some info i found the other day
A V8 engined version was to be introduced in 2001 labeled the V8.com but was cancelled weeks before the official introduction. The reason was concerns about whether the engine was vollgasfest (German, "Full throttle resistant") - the engine might overheat and be damaged if driven flat out on the Autobahn for long periods of time. The power plant used was the quad over head cam GM USA Northstar V8
