Your post is full of generalisations and errors.
Let's start at the beginning. The Commodore was an Opel long before it became a Holden. When a German model name was first adopted for the new smaller Holden in 1978, Holden fans weren't jumping up and down decrying the decision, but younger drivers today, who never knew Holden before the Commodore seem to think that keeping the name for a new model, again from Opel, is the end of the world. What bullshit. Get a life FFS.
Second point. Not every noddy who drives a "Captiva" is a dipshit who doesn't know its not really a Holden. Try me. I'll gladly put my knowledge of Holden against most members of this forum. I drive one. I certainly know it's not a "real" Holden. And I'm fed up with know-alls bucketing me and others who happen to be satisfied with their choice of car. It meets my needs admirably. It isn't crap and it isn't badly built. And it too was originally an Opel. (Antara), not a Daewoo.
And finally, have you driven the new Commodore, or do you just know its inferior because "everyone says it is"?
