That there is a completely stock car available in Australia. It's a GTS Commodore and it has 19" wheels as an option, powered by an LS1, and it pretty much kicks butt. America sucks I'm moving to the land down under.

Now that car rocks! Wow. Very, very nice. The styling isn't bad at all. Imho.

Here's some facts I found for it...

(Reported from Feb2000 source)
0-60 = 5.7 sec
0-100 = 13.8 sec
152 mph top speed

There is also a version called the HSV Commodore GTS 300 (same engine, just a Callaway LS1 version)
0-60 = 5.2 sec
0-100 = 12.0 sec
170 (est) top speed

Got this from this website

They are afraid of doing anything that may impact Mustang sales. I would love to have that car!!

 

[MrEous]

The car is made by Holden...a subsidiary of GM. They wouldn't want to hurt Corvette sales.

[Merlin]

The performance aspects of that car are badass! However, I think I'd rather stuff that Calloway LS-1 under the hood of my probe...
hmmm - note to self: Win the Lotto

Found some more info on this car and more pics...

This car is actually an HSV (Holden Special Vehicles) Commodore GTS Coupe

Oh yeah...here's an interior shot I got from a website.

I kinda see the shape of an avenger too. when looking at the silver car in that pic with 3 carsw/yellow pointing forward...

Get me a ticket too Chris

 

[MrEous]

Priceless

1 One-Way Ticket to Australia = $1524

1 brand new HSV Commodore GTS Coupe = $90,000aud (about $46,000us)

The grin on your face from driving one of the fastest cars made in Australia = PRICELESS

Dayum!
Get me a ticket too Chris
