Doubt this is true, But it's not that bad of a looking car ?
http://www.goauto.com.au/mellor/mellor.nsf/story2/B5219A5436606F1ACA257A450020A3C5

Looks like a crappy CTS.

See, this is what I mean. A half arsed attempt at cutting down the ugly tree while sat at the top of the self same aforementioned ugly tree. It might be rear wheel drive, but who's going to buy that pile  of crap against what the Germans offer...?

Ok, it might even be a decent car under that pig ugly exterior, but nobody will care when it looks like a mutant experiment. (Biiiig loooong siiiiiiiiiiiiigh )

It's quite common knowledge that VX are very good at making shitty small euro-boxes to compete against the likes of Shitroen and Pukegeot.  They still cant outsell a Ford in the small market.

As for larger cars, nothing is going to beat BMW, Merc & VAG in real terms, no matter what it looks like.  GM are not a big player.

GM are not a big player (I typed it twice for conviction).

I thought I just said that. (Turns to everyone and asks) I did, I did just say that didn't I?(everyone nods agreeingly) yes I thought I did.

That's why they need to bring a decent motor into Europe!

You did and they should

If they want to save money, they could relaunch the Omega with a broader range of engines

They should just import the Commodore range and be done with it

The Calais would give BMW and Mercedes a run for their money, but they need a decent diesel for that, say a twin turbo 3.0 v6...

[D]

But who would buy the relaunched Omega? Unless it was significantly cheaper or better made or faster or sportier or something significantly different than BMW/Merc/Audi etc.

I dont think there are too many people on the site who bought a new Omega back in the day? Even though everyone says GM should relaunch the Omega, what they truly mean is: I hope GM launch a car now that is big comfortable RWD with toys but isn't quite as good as the competition, so that it depreciates like a stone and hence I could pick up  bargain in 5 years time to replace my fast dying out old Omega.
