Holden Commodore Limited Edition models

Hey Cuda,

I've been absent from the forum for a while so haven't really been keeping up with what's been going on here. I must say that I am shocked and disgusted that the highly anticipated delivery of your MSE has been marred by these unfortunate circumstances. It really sucks that what was supposed to be a special and memorable moment for you has been permanently tarnished due to the incompetence of others.
Anyhow, congrats on the purchase and I hope you will put this saga behind you quickly so you can enjoy that MSE.

Hey Zero,

You've been conspicuous in your absence mate ;-). Welcome back!
Thanks, and yes it's almost behind me. The dealer is talking the talk. Which is great. I'm expecting a response to all my questions and a report they have demanded from the freight company. It'll work out mate. The car is SSenSSational!

maybe cos its auto and has no rear wing? its still a great price I think.

Maybe it's the colour? It ain't easy being green

Hey all,

I really don't want to sound all prima donna. But I need to say thanks!!!

So, thanks to one and all, for all the kind, informative, helpful and supportive comments posted since last Wednesday when my Motorsport was unceremoniously dumped at a Suzuki dealership in an appallingly filthy state and without most of the protective packaging and stickers etc expected with an NOPD delivery. I cannot overemphasise how good it was to know there were a bunch of you blokes from all over this great country, who were on my side in the trenches. Thanks so much!
As I've said, since then I have been swamped at work (our peak season, multiple staff with flu, systems down etc etc). So, as much as it's haunted me, I've had precious little time to post updates. My apologies for that.
It may seem a bit OTT to some to have such a reaction to a car purchase. But, unlike some others, you blokes understand what these cars mean, the passion, the wait, the build up, the number of times you've visualised the and the arrival, conversations you've had etc etc. This isn't just a car. It's a masterpiece. A mechanical member of the family. It's here for life. To have it arrive as it did. Was, in all honesty quite distressing!
But, then there were all the posts!!! Like "get well" or sympathy cards, they flooded in. Bloody awesome you blokes! I may not have been posting. But I've certainly been reading and I am very grateful. Quite the little community aren't we
I certainly have a different perspective regarding all those new members who post on JC looking for help. Often with far more serious problems than I had. I think at times we underestimate how helpful this forum is. It's an amazing resource, with some fantastic members. It's great to be a part of it.

So enough of my melancholy and mournful diatribe. It's time to sneak a peak of the Green Machine before bed hehe.

Cheers,
Cuda

Welcome back

Noted that same dealer with magnum above has 5 motorsports unsold so probably asking to much coin

We all know exactly how you felt, and in some regards I disagree - that first impression of your new car is probably THE most important after all the anticipation (like when a child is born). If it all starts well, what happens to it afterwards you can deal with.

BTW I have just installed a new CCTV system including a camera in the garage so I can always sneak a peek at my green machine from my phone whether in bed or away travelling - highly recommended!
