I even see chevys here with the badge on them and it makes me cringe.
And theyre suppose to be on there.

I just dont think i could drive that thing and get the commodore "feel" if that makes sense.

Putting a Chevy badge on a Holden is like putting a sombrero on Ned Kelly.

Or at least it used to be. Now, if the hat fits.....

^^^^ I don't know this guy at all!!!!

LOL.
I am not saying I would buy one for me. But if it is priced right in the second hand market and the wife needs a new car, then it might be considered. not because of its model name though, only on its merits and what other options it is compared to.

And if she ever compares it to my 'real' commodore! !!! There will be words had!!

Probably isnt a better engine but would be more fun with one of them
shoe horned in there. Piss off the front driveshafts and put a decent lsd
in the back. Make it more worthy of the commodore badge.
