And to better drive it home....GM (rumoor) spent 250-350 million dollars to develop the 5th gen...the whole car. That included increasing the dash to axle ratio from the Holden Zeta platform along with 100 or so improvements to chassis dynamics over the Aussie Zeta platform.
But it's tradition!

Actually, it just proves how old the chassis was...
