AGREE, BUT THIS TIME ITS DIFFERENT WITH A PRETEND WANNA BE COMMODORE, IM NOT KEEN AT ALL IF I HAD TO CHOOSE BETWEEN A ZB AND A SMART CAR OR SOMETHING I WOULDNT TAKE THE ZB....

Giving completely new name it possibly would have been a better strategy

They will make a cheap second hand car in 3 or 4 years. I had one as a rental and it was a decent car to drive, V6 AWD.

Nope going to stick to my ve , may get a ve ute as well so i have a nice collection.

Would rather get the KIA Stinger over the new commodore !
Hey defiantly the new Suzuki jimmy as well .

I think the only decent Holden is the Colorado now.

Sad day but hey at-least we still have Japanese cars

The new offshore Commodore approaches, what are your thoughts everyone?

No V8s? More or less a complete import....

Will you embrace it? Or will you stick with the original equipment?
COMMODORE IS DEAD THE NEW COMMODORE IS A INSULT TO THE COMMODORE NAME. THE COMMODORE IS DEAD & I THINK HOLDEN WON'T BE FAR BEHIND

Say what you want about the new Holden Commodore. It is a very nice car. It Drives well and the V6 goes pretty hard. Is it a "Commodore" though. No. It should never have had the commodore badge put on it. Holden should have retired the Commodore name with the VF2 and just given the ZB a new name. I think Holden keeping the Commodore name hurt them more than if they had just retired it. If you've been in a ZB, you'll know it is a very nice car and well suited for Australian roads, but it's just not a Commodore. Would I ever buy one? MAYBE one day I might consider it, but right now I can't give up my 330kw LS3 VF2 Australian Built Commodore and unlikely to for many many years.
