My son and I took our Redline up to Cromwell at the weekend they have a breakfast and track laps at the Highlands Motorsports Park every third Sunday of the month. We were one of the last to arrive and ended up in the last group to do the circuit there were only 4 of us behind the safety car...

Thanks, yes certainly the colour changes in different light conditions. According to the dealer there were only 10 LMF that came over to NZ. Don't quote me on that but makes her a bit more exclusive over here !!

Took some photos at the weekend. Got a bit over 600 klms on her.

Thanks, she's a beauty!! I use Mothers carnuba in the solid wax form gives the paint a really deep lustrous shine. I guess the disadvantage of wax is you do do need to keep applying it I generally do my cars every six months

Cheers ! Yes not a V8 virgin anymore, I could not have had a nicer car than the mighty Commodore Redline to break me in !! Lol ;)

Just an update on our Redline. Picked her up last Thursday all very exciting! My first drive of a Redline was ours out of the Showroom!! Wow what a fantastic car, I tell you what that accelerator is a gift that just keeps giving!!;) Drove her home then spent a few hours giving her another...

Bugger !! :eek:

Yes nice knowing she's all tucked up inside! The salesman was more than happy to have her sitting in pride of place in the showroom for a few days. It's the first LMF they have had and have been getting lots of positive feedback back about the colour!!

Thanks , looking forward to seeing her in the flesh !!

:) Well she has made it to the showroom!! The plan is to head up and get her next week....can't wait!! Actually I have been very patient it will be almost six months to the day !! I got the salesman to send me some pics,will get some more next week :)

Yes I appreciate you cannot expect no damage from stones, just wondered if the bonnet protector would keep some of the smaller stones away. It's another two hundred and something dollars but maybe give a bit longer before needing touched up. Opinions seem divided on the net as to there...

They do say good things come to those who wait !! I do have a question regarding the bonnet protector does anyone have a pic of the smoked protector on a LMF ? Just had the bonnet on our Mazda3 repainted it was covered in chips and needed done although not that noticeable after a freight truck...

Our Redline came off the line first week in July... I'm starting to wonder if you will have yours before me ! It will be six months at the end of next week since I ordered ours :( My son got all excited a couple of weeks ago thought he spied it in the dealers holding yard..... it was the middle...

Cheers will do ;)

Thanks for the information. My Commodore has been spied in the holding yard at the dealers awaiting final preparations ! Hope to hear from the dealer this week.... very excited!!

Just wondering about the production line pics. Are these only available to cars sold in Aussie or can you get them if you buy your new car in NZ as I have ??

98 and still driving is great, even better when your behind the wheel of a magnificent V8 !!

Yes,we have the issue of Australia being a small Island off the coast of New Zealand so a strip of water to negotiate rather than just over a border line !! This does create delivery difficulties but I'm sure the wait will be worth it !!

Well done !!! .....was it good for you?? Lol

Looks great ! Getting more excited by the day here.I'm about to loose my virginity !! ...... that's my V8 virginity just to make that clear. Spoke to the dealer last week our new pride and joy is on the way should land in Lyttleton port at Christchurch on the 19th he was not able to say when it...

Thanks that clears that up for me

Hmmm, not what I expected,the bonnet stripe is solid without the pinstripe between. And no side decals. Thanks for pics. Hmmm, not sure, the bonnet stripe is solid without the pinstripe between. I'm not getting the black roof probably be a bit much with racing stripes as well.

Does anyone have a pic of a LMF with the race decals including the bonnet? I've ordered ours with them much to my wife's disgust!! Thinks we will look too much like boy racers !! My sons think they are cool

Cheers..... not too sure about the reference to sheep!! Lol but taken in context I agree you won't catch me with an SUV !! It's either a car or a ute. Kind of feel like the odd one out nowadays when your in the car. No pain involved although my wallet was busy stifling muffled screams,but when...

Thanks Malleeboy. This will be the first time I've bought a vehicle and never taken it for a test drive. Sat in one straight off the boat with all the plastic still on and covered in dust and dirt from shipping and transport to the dealer.

The review that got me all fired up was the auto review. He also did a bonus sound track video but because I'm a complete computer dinasour haven't a clue how to put up here !!

Gidday, I've been keeping to the shadows here enjoying the excitement of everyone waiting and receiving there new cars.As my username suggests I'm a V8 virgin,not only that I'm a Holden virgin too !! Long story short hired a rental at the beginning of this year I won't name the brand but it has...
