Why would they give NZ's weaker models, to say 'ok you can have a holden but it wont be good..' lol seems like a spiteful slap to NZ.

It's all about what they thought they could sell at the time.

Funny how not many 4cyl Commodores pop up for sale over in NZ. They must just die and get scrapped.:p

The wiki said that there may have been 20 full spec VN Calais's sent there with the 4 banger in em. + even some VN Calais wagons:w00t:.

The VN GTS was a good sports model with the FE2 in it and nice rims. Also noted a Calais steering wheel in one of the photos.

And if you put the 4 banger Commodore side by side with the GTS I know which one I'd buy:)

I think that noone knows about the 6cyl versions of the GTS because its a disgrace. GTS's should have only been released as a V8.

Hmmm probably true. - I have hunted high n low for the photo of the VP V6 GTS memcal I scabbed of Ebay some time ago.

It had a yellow sticker on it from memory.

I thought it was a crock of pooh when I first seen it - maybe I deleted it thinking it was fake.:cry:

A disgrace like the V6 VP SS, and the super6 VT SS?
