It's a full size based on the old European Opel Omega's RWD chassis (later also used for the Cadillac Catera), but with a larger body and longer wheelbase.

The engine is the same 3.8 pushrod V6 found in large FWD Buicks and Pontiacs, good for about 200hp in Australian trim.

Build quality is average, but this car is extremely spacious, and quite comfortable. Think of it as a modern cross between a Bonneville and a Caprice Classic.

It has the added advantage of not attracting attention, and running on regular unleaded.
