VT2 Berlina
This was my first Commodore and my first "real" car after leaving school. It was a white 1999 VN Exec when it started, V6, 5 speed manual. Extras included:
VN Calais 2 tone paint
HSV type body kit
Calais badges (HSV badge on the front grill)
Alloy wheels
Lowered
Tinted windows
Kenwood CD with subs in the rear
Grey Leather italian steering wheel
Sports instrument cluster.

Update - forgot to mention I fitted aftermarket cruise control using the Calais original switches. Worked better and smoother than factory fitted.

Sold it to a fellow in Western Sydney in 1993. Anyone ever seen it since?

I have since owned a VS exec, VT2 Berlina (still own it) and a VY S (still own it).
