I saw the GRM VE this afternoon. Thing looks tough.


Even though it had no wheels on and was jacked up, the whole stance was set just right.

Cant wait to see them racing

i was under the impression that they have been refined more than just 'VE body on a VZ'

surely theres more to it.


such as this
The new generation Commodores have been built in-house by Perkins Engineering and are the result of an 18 month collaboration between Holden, its factory supported teams and TEGA. Over 3,000 man-hours were put in by Perkins Engineering staff building the first of the two cars.

Wheel base has been shortened to that of the VT-VX-VY-VZ. So between A & C pillars, it is all old stuff. Have a look at a side on profile of the two and you'll see what I mean.
