FWD commodore. shouldn't be called a commodore.
face it peoples, its dead. fucking shame too.
the kia stinger for all intents / purposes --> makes for an ideal replacement (although it is still a kia, they listened to the RWD platform use case) - if they completely want to utterly pwn alltehthingz imagine if they came out with a ute. it would be over.
tell you what though would be an interesting case study /thesis for both ford AND holden - ie: their demise.

camaro and vette on the other hand, now you're talking.
Cheers,
Greg aka Sir Burnie Tanington

I spotted one today in Gisbourne, I was driving behind it through the town. Had the black/white camo stuff around all the lights and the badges poorly covered :lol: you could clearly see the holden badge through the black sticky tape as they put it over the top too tight.

Looks like a POS Hyundai to me :roll:

Time to get cashed up. Not for everyone and not a four door, but it will keep HSV in the game

Bahaha. True. Watch the local Peformance industry change from Holden or HSV to Chev etc too. See a few name changes coming to keep up. :silent:

nope, just grateful there will be at least some decent looking new cars on the road, not the atrocious fat man's butter boxes that are given the more delightful name of suv

That said I know someone else who should be trading in for one.
