Default I hate to admit it...

but I kinda like it! Will definitely consider when I need to get a more sensible daily drive.

Finally, the new 'world class' Holden VF Commodore has landed in Australia | News.com.au




Keen to see the HUD system too..

Flame away but I really hope this turns things around for Holden and shifts them away from the flanno-wearing bogan stereotype they current get slapped with. I don't think it's quite up to par wit hthe big guns, but definitely a lot closer.
RUSSGT, MY00GC8, ZAGMAN and 1 others like this.

Holden are really picking there game up, and in the next year are bringing out a lot of good products, It's good to see, I think the VF will be a very impressive car I look forward to it being released

Yeh I thought Calais/Statesman level. I'd probably own one if I had to.

The face looks quite similar to the Opel insignia. Still a great looking car.

I reckon plasti-dip the chrome grill, and throw on some wide charcoal rims and it would look pretty good. I also quite like the Evo X-esque vent behind the front wheels. Headlights should have been made a bit more aggressive I think though.

If that's the Calais-spec, I'm interested to see what they do with the SS to please the hoons.
