VS Exec 1995
I have purchased a 1996 Holden Commodore SERIES II.
it has alloy 15' as well as the red stripe and it has a sticker on both sides on the rear door that says 'Sports'

i am not familiar enough with the commodore to know what is standard and what is 'Sports'

as far as i know my S pack is bone stock with no optional extras (doesn't have ABS LSD OR IRS)
and the suspension badge says 'radial tuned suspension' on the dash. it has a raised spoiler not just a lip.

basically what i want to know is; What is the extras (compared to an executive) that come with all S packs, interior and exterior.
and what comes with them as an option? i have searched and searched but i cannot find a thread just about VS S packs in particular.

thanks heaps :boxing:

oh and for those who are curios - it has 140,000kms, one owner(old man) and not one scratch or mark on the whole paint or interior. engine bay is spotless, serviced by holden every 5000 with logs. It's white. and i love it :)

thank's for the info mate, but what i wanted to know is the difference between an spac and executive, for eg. the seats are different in what way? i have looked up the dask so i know what you mean. i have the spac alloys, an ss spoiler, what is boot garnish? and i believe i have FE2 but my badge inside the car just says radial tuned. what's different about the door trim? and last question do some s packs come without the lip kit? because i don't think i have a lip kit.

have a look at this one
1996 Holden Commodore S Series II VS II Cars For Sale in VIC - CarPoint Australia

seats are the same design as standard exec its is pattern on the cloth which is different, door trims and dash and dash are a dark grey.
boot garnsih is between the two lights on the boot lid just above the number plate
check your id plate under suspension it should say fe2.
lip kit was standard on all s pacs, which where either white, black or botanic mica the blue/green color like the car in the ad.
the lip kit is the add-on under the bumper bars and the side.
mechanically they are the same, the s pac is just a tarted up executive
