A brand new, clean sheet design with a new production plant in Port Melbourne (I rode past it yesterday). And it was mediocre. I remember how underwhelmed the media was when the Alloytec was released. Hence why I was so livid in 2007 when Ford announced they were going to dump the superior Barra engine and replace it with an imported V6.

Back on topic. I still cannot believe GM is gone from Australia.
