Same platform as the Camaro? I think not.
It does... they both use the new GM RWD Zeta platform. It underpins both the new Holden Commodore (on which the Ute/possible new Elkie is based), the new Camaro, and a new range of Pontiacs.
You won't want for power... the HSV Commodore has a 6-litre V8 with over 400hp.
