In terms of a local V8 muscle car, it drives like nothing else -- end of story.


HSV's cars should be interesting

I am praying that Vauhall brings these in to the country

Quick Wortech upgrade and i'd be sorted.

Not much of a road test. It reads like they para-phrased the Holden press release. A more cynical man would say the writer or publication are sponsored by GM....

Nice thing to look at though. And to think, 10 years ago your SS Commodore only came with 5L, 165kw and about as much technology as your average shopping trolley.
