Default 2014 Colorado/Canyon anyone?

Anyone been watching for the 2014 Colorado/Canyon? Seems to be a lot of guessing on what it will look like being it has already been release in other countries. I do hope it looks a bit more truck like on the front. I am hoping GM will release with the 2.8l I4 turbo Duramax diesel with a 6 speed manual in a crew cab with 4x4 and maybe somthing to a ZR5 package like on s10's with a few extra add ons. I think its about 180hp and 347ftlbs for the 2.8l diesel and I would be happy with 30mph highway with it.

Here are some pics

Some say it will look like the Isuzu D-Max with a bow tie on the front.



Give me this but 4x4 and a crew cab and they will have my money.



What do you guy think of it?

Looks really cool in the side view pic, I love the look of it. But the interior with the console shift makes it look like a car.

Im really into fullsize now though, so it would just feel too small.

Put that new 6.2v8 in it and then we will talk.

I don't own one but my friend does and I have to agree with you, it looks good but has no power.

I like the Isuzu better than the Chevy's you posted. I also like the look of the previous generation Z71 Colorado.

Wow, fail. The Colorado has been one of my favorite trucks every, design wise. But this thing is a joke IMO

This article/spy-shots suggest it's going to look like a mini-Silverado and not much like the international version

The spy photo looks like it has a more squared off front end than the pics above. I hope it does. I also like the Zebra print camo. I'd go for that too. Great for hiding in the Zebra herds here on the savannahs of northern Alberta.
