    From a technologic point of view it has to be the VL, build quality would be the VB and looks certainly the VH (but this is only in my opinion )

    The VL is clearly the best car, but the best looking is the VH, two tone SL/E's are mint but even the SL/X has a slick interior, green is good. Those days were so much more exciting than the mostly grey on grey on grey interiors of the VN-VZ. I hope the VE has some funky interior colour options

    I chose VK because it was the latest one with a Carby..

    EFI, the days people stopped being able to tinker too much with their cars..

    I couldn't agree more. I love VH SL/E's. Enough chrome, and very little plastic.

    VH SLE(the member) has one of the nicest VH SL/E's(the car) i've seen. Geez this is gonna sound confusing.

    I know this may come across as biased, but it has to be the VL.

    The others were just a ongoing version of eachother, ending in the plastic VH, the VK. The VL was in a class of it's own, because it featured alot of stuff that wasn't used in the other Commodores.

    From a completely un-biased opinion, it would have the be the VH. So damn nice and the last Holden to have chrome bumpers.

    VH in dark metallic green for me though anything from VB - VK looks great if painted and set up well with the right wheels etc.
    I just really like the shape.
