yeah iv heard the lexcens were better because, everytime holden would make a commodore, toyota would copy it identically and take out the faults, so they would alway be released like a few months later, but have othe **** fixed, up, but neways, lucky for me my favorite car is a toyota supra, or a holdn commodore, so i geuss im getting the best of both my dream worlds lol, thanks guys

Commodores are more expensive than their Lexcen equivalent because alot of people do see them as a try hard commodore. As everyone else says, badge it as a Holden because thats what it is. If you badge it as one, it'd be as good as any other in my books. If its badged as a Toyota or a Chevvy, then its a try hard commodore.

That goes for all the VY owners etc. out there putting Chev badges on their Holdens. I even saw a VT clubsport parked in town the other day with chev badges all over the outside. What is wrong with you ppl? Take pride in owning a Holden! dont wish it was something else!

The Lexcens also have way more modern mud flaps and some extra rubber moulds on the body and are better optioned, They came with a 5? year warrenty and cost about 5 grand more than a Commodore when new.

They are worth more as far as insurance companies are concered (about 2 grand more) and cost much less to insure so 3800_man you are the one that made the smart buy, pity the Commodore owners and be proud of your "Toyota", I don't see Holden running a F1 team anytime soon :)
