i still dont understand why every one hates the chev badge. ive got them on my vy v6 s, im not trying to flog it off as a v8 there purely for the looks. looks heaps beter than the holden badge IMO. its not as if ive gone and put SS badges on my S. so i would have to say NO, not ALL commodore owners with the chev badge are dreamers. buttt i dont see any harm in dreaming about owning a v8 chev ;)

I hate seeing chev badges on commodores because they are NOT chevs, they are Holdens, whether they have a chev motor or not. If everyone badged their cars according to the kind of engine it had we'd be seeing old corona's with holden badges, and a heap of vl's with nissan badges. And VN-VP commodores with buick badges.

i a;ways understood it as they weren't even chev engines, they're by GM powertrain. they're in chevs, but also in holdens. holden drivers can put a chev badge on just as much as a chev driver can put a lion on.
