    All auto Commodores were four speeds from VN to VY and most of the base models were on VZ and VE. 4 cylinders????? Not in Australia.

    They put out a 4 cylinder VC. Quite useless from what I've read.

    yep, 4 speeds and many have 'overdrive' so this might be where people get confused think they are not 4 speed? they certainly are not 3 speeds and the only 5 speeds i've heard of in that era are the manuals

    well it means you can fit 3 people in the front, so why not? =P

    however a 3 seater with a floor manual is even more fun

    but $6000 for an auto does seem sorta high. i would expect a manual for that (or maybe a bit more but still)
    how about we make the pedals out of sticky rubber and the shoes with steel spikes. at least my shins would like that
