Lemme tell you want's really going to happen. Take an impala SS (5.3L v8, transverse) or a lucerne or a pontiac grand prix GXP, drop the engine out, and insert it under a lucerne. Now, fit a new set of crummy bumpers to the Lucerne to give it a velite front and rear end and keep the rest of the uninspiring car. Happy torque-steering! Nobody wants that car GM! The whole point is to get NEW buyers, not keep the few loyalists entertained. christ. The velite is cool because it's a long hooded, short wheelbase, RWD convertible that looks like the legitimate heir to the roadmasters of the 50s, not the 90's.... dmmt. They take it as just another excuse to produce another poorly conceived engine-swap and plastic recasting... blech. GARGH! you may be reading this and think it’s a nifty move.
