Just got back from a trip to NZ, where I saw a black VE Commodore with "GTR" badges (in Tauranga, I think) which looked factory fit, not aftermarket.
Any Kiwis who can explain ?

Nice. Ironically, I have always said you should be able to option an SV6 up to an SSV/SSV Redline interior/suspension/wheels package. For those who want the look & luxury without the V8. But seriously, calling it a GTR? LOL!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not going to argue its disrespectful to the GTR name and legend. However, I think we might see many legends destroyed when the next gen commodore is introduced or as the say in the states #Notmycommodore lol

Edit: Holden NZ introduced the Commodore GTR in 2007, they are not worth much more than a standard SV6, maybe a grand or two at best.
