MY17 Specs and Release Date

[V8Virgin]

Gidday, I've been keeping to the shadows here enjoying the excitement of everyone waiting and receiving there new cars.As my username suggests I'm a V8 virgin,not only that I'm a Holden virgin too !! Long story short hired a rental at the beginning of this year I won't name the brand but it has an oval shaped badge. I've never owned the larger sedans and was very impressed at how nice it was to drive ! Came home jumped on the net and started some research. Soon realised the oval badge wasn't an option as a new car don't make them any more. And the last Aussie classic was heading for extinction! All the reviews and reports were giving the Commodore great reviews and one review in particular pushed me over the edge Carnut Kiwi great review and the soundtrack was excellent!! I still plug it in and listen on a regular basis !! Anyway don't want to bore all with a novel. Had a chat with the local dealer and ordered a LMF Redline in March. So according to the delivery sheet our new baby should have been born this week,with delivery to NZ late August early September!!! Can't wait !!

Carnut Kiwi great review and the soundtrack was excellent!

The exhaust or the music? Got it wrong on the tyres a bit.

Congratulations V8Virgin. This is my first Commodore and first V8 also. Something I have always wanted but never fitted in with the lifestyle at the time so decided this was the last chance. You will love it.

The review that got me all fired up was the auto review. He also did a bonus sound track video but because I'm a complete computer dinasour haven't a clue how to put up here !!
