"GM is developing a platform on which to base a family of new roadsters, including a successor to the Vauxhall VX220 and Saab Sonnet sports car."

Unless they use the same unique aluminium bonding technique for the new platform, there's no way it'll be better than or even as good as the "old" Lotus Elise / Opel Speedster / Vauxhall VX220 platform.

I sure hope they don't build it on some crappy old fashioned platform just because of cost cutting measures.
