I can relate, my VP Berlina 5L 5Sp wagon is fun
Welcome to Just Commodores, a site specifically designed for all people who share the same passion as yourself.
and don't forget brock had a fallout with holden over the energy polarizer (pic below) which saw the end of the brock HDT and the start of HSV and he left to race for ford and to build some of their cars in the 90's, so there are brock fords.
Another 'limited production' run was the HQ SS. Only a few hundred were made, maybe a thousand, they had many of the Monaro-like things... black outs on the bonnet, striping etc... but were only 253s under the bonnet.
Also only came in 3 colours, Red, Green, and Mauve (Silver/grey), plus were 253s with the 4 speed manual (the 308 one you heard of would have been a company car, or not factory 308)
Not quite...
How about the earliest of the FE Holdens for rare cars today? The first several hundred, I believe, had a weakness in the rear structure that was stiffened up in production. So I guess these first ones flexed and had extra rusting potential than the rest... so not many would be left?

Though I seem to recall a bloke I knew had one that had escaped the factory with a 308, so that would be a rare one.
S4s... about 125 made. The really rare ones are the ones that had disc brakes and 4-speed gearboxes, yet many people seem to think they all did.
