10 cars you won’t see on sale after 2015

Chevy thought it had exploited narrowing white space in its model lineup when it began importing the Commodore, a rear-drive sedan, from GM Holden in Australia and renaming it the SS. Powered by a V-8 Corvette engine, the SS won rapturous reviews from buff book writers, but didn’t fit in Chevy’s front-wheel-drive lineup, and with a base price of $44,470, it never found an audience. All but D.O.A. on arrival in 2013, the fate of the SS was sealed when General Motors GM -0.50% decided to shut down production of the Commodore and everything else in Australia in 2017.

I guess is not going to make it after 2015 in the USA. Sorry guys, the GM brass is full of duds.

the next 5-10 years will be the best for stocking up on E and F series Holden's before they get trashed. Im already hoping to pick up a second VE in the next 1-2 years and would like a VF daily later on while there available in good nic
