Title: US falls in love with Aussie car Post by: twoiron on September 24, 2008, 08:31:49 PM The Australian-made Pontiac G8 has been shortlisted for the 2009 North American Car of the Year (NACOTY) award.
The Pontiac G8 is one of 14 semi-finalists with the winner to be determined by a jury of 47 automotive journalists. The car is an export version of GM Holden's VE Commodore and is built at the company's manufacturing plant in Adelaide's north. It went on sale in the US early this year. Holden said the nomination reinforced the global appeal of vehicles designed, engineered and manufactured in Australia. The 2009 NACOTY will be named at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January.
