The pictures make it look distorted.  I am guessing it is on a Camaro chassis.

It's a powerful-looking car and the 442 name is a classic, although I am wishing the great Oldsmobile name itself was still around producing cool American cars.

@carsman1958, it's a digital render. Although, I imagine a production version would be on the Camaro chassis and look much like the pics.

Oh how I'd love the 4-4-2 and the Oldsmobile would reappear.  I've always felt GM was wrong in dropping both the Olds and Pontiac.  There would have been other ways for them to eliminate some cars from each of their 5-Ladder Brand Line-up and still keep those two.  Maybe just keep the 4-4-2 and the GTO as exclusive sports cars, like the Corvette.  LOL, at least I like the idea.  Smile /strong>

No thanks.  I would be a hazard on the road with it.

Kind of like this evil looking concept but do believe the photo is somewhat distorted. I've done some edits, narrowing the car both front and back. Does this appear more realistic?

I have never been a fan of GM cars, my favorite was the Pontiac followed closely by the Oldsmobile, of course those were the 2 GM dumped. Now I really don't like GMC.
