Cool. It looks a little like an Equinox/Traverse....except for men. And in this case, that is a good thing.

Exactly. I would rather they kept the nameplate dead than soil it the way Ford has done with the Explorer.

Looks way too much like the Colorado. Chevy's getting too boring with their designs lately... I sure hope they don't follow that design with the Tahoe/Suburban for 2014. It looks good, but it's overdone.

That's 10 miles of bad road ugly.
The lower section of the front fascia is not right.
And the 'C' pillar where quarter glass meets the rear door glass, that alignment is not symmetrical.

I like it! Something about it reminds me of the new Jeep GC SRT8 styling, which I love

The lower front fascia will almost definitely be revised for production.

Hey, I just looked closer at the pictures, and noticed the 4500 RPM redline. Is that diesel coming to the US?

Is it me or does the rear cargo area look REALLY small? It looks like an equinox sized back end which is not good. This CUV is supposed to compete with Explorer and Durango. Both of which look much bigger in the back.

Chevrolet built an MLEQUIX5PORSCHE?

Rear window and doors - ML

Front facia: X5 bottom Equinox top

bottom of doors rockers: ML again.

Porsche light bar in front bumper.

Overall: It's kinda cool. Too bad the stuff that makes it cool will probably never see production like the exhaust, the HID aux lighting and the aluminum accent mirrors. And the diesel powerplants that would actually make the thing more economical to operate.

This thing just looks wayyy too small for my taste. We already have an Equinox and we love it, but its mostly my wife's car. I want something bigger like an Explorer and more likely a Durango.

I need something with more rear cargo room for myself. But not in the price range of Suburban or Tahoe. Pretty much what im saying is that Gm either needs to refresh the Acadia and price it down to the $28,000 mark like Durango, or make a new model in that price range.

As it sits right now my only GM choices are

Equinox (wife has one already from 2010)
Traverse (too expensive and minivan like)
Acadia (the size is right but it starts at $32K)

I need something from GM that is Acadia sized but starts at around $28k otherwise Ford or Dodge will be getting my business.
