Why o why do people want to buy cars from spanky land?
go and buy from down under, steering wheel on the proper side for a start.,speedo might be in the foreign, but that's minor.

Not sure what the CTS-V is based on, but the Camaro is a 2 door VXR8 in all but styling, same suspension, same running gear, I'd put money on the exhausts being interchangeable too

If the cars were cheaper when they got here, then they'd sell enough to make them right hand drive...

I had a look at a Camaro at a Chevy dealership when I went to Texas in the summer.

They look great from the outside but the interior was full of black plastic and felt really basic, cheap and nasty to be honest. 

Interestingly the salesman told me that he'd recently sold 2 to a company in Australia who import cars and pickups from the US, convert them to RHD and resell.  I guess as the Aussie dollar is strong at the moment, the cars are cheap, but what of the conversion cost?    There must be a margin and demand though as they wouldn't bother.....

Looks like a Renault! 

Note that the Daewoo version is priced at $44,000 and the Vauxhall is £54,995!! 

Yep. That's tax for you.

I had a Ford Falcon and it had the proper speedo but then again it was a 1976 vintage  Had a 302ci and went very well.

  The wheels almost look like Saxo chav types to me
