looks like the HSV VE R8 might be exported to the states under Pontiacs prestigious GXP badge since the VE SS-V has the G8 slot

IMO the HSV's will sell well in the US. Hopefully they do not have to 'amercanise' them too much from what the VE is now.

thats good news for holden/HSV if it happens.

i wonder if they will badge it under pontiac or maybe the chev brand.

Pontiac have just confirmed that pricing for the G8 GT (our VE SS-V) will be well shy of US$35k, leaving room for a premium model GXP (E-Series Clubbie?) priced somewhere in the US$40k bracket which may explain the E-series HSV in Michigan picture.

Interestingly, when converted to aussie dollars the yanks are getting our SS-V's for a AU$15k discount...!
