Pajero LWB Wagon, Power/economy what's that ???
The last pick with the white sticker is a different car entirely than the other photos. There is no lip/edge below the side windows and C pillar as is seen on the others and the door handles are different.
Is it just a VZ fitted with the new engine for testing? (Quad exhaust Edit: plus bulging front panels)
Sorry, I have never had a very close look at the VZ so I don't really know if it is a VZ or if this is claimed as a VE.
I may have missed something of course so please correct me.

While reports of a new Buick convertible based on GM's Kappa architecture have been milling around since Pontiac introduced its upcoming Solstice roadster, the truth of the matter is the new concept is underpinned by GM of Australia's rear- and all-wheel drive Zeta platform. Initially developed for the Holden VE Commodore sedan and first shown to the public in Frankfurt as the Opel Insignia concept, Zeta will also be the basis for the upcoming Deville replacement expected to be called the DTS. If that's not worldly enough for you, the Velite was designed in Michigan and constructed by Bertone of Ita

Your right. The only Holden with a twin exhaust so far is the Monaro. Hes is half rigth though, it is a VY.

It's because they knew when 2006 came along the LS1 wouldn't be euro compliant anymore, so they were testing out how the detuned 6.0 litre would go in the VT-VZ platform, that's what that VY is for
