and you think that the Commodores, Falcons and Nissan's are different, they are ALL the same my friend, the taillights, headlights, door handles (maybe) and the badges are about the only items from the manufacturer on all 4 car models

And as for the legalities of it, there hasn't been a problem with the sports sedans all these years, so why should this be any different ?

I believe you have been given the sensible answer Puma. Why do you have an issue.
There is more Mercedes in an Erebus, than there is Holden in a commodore |
