I disagree. The term Commodore at all levels has a bogan stigma attached to it. When I first bought my VF Calais V I copped the inevitable bogan tag from my mates (who drive Euro cars) but once they saw it in person, got to sit in it and play with the gizmos. They went a bit quieter because they realised that they paid 40-50% more for their car that had the same (or less) features, similar quality feel and less power.
They still call me a bogan, but now they do it a bit more tongue in cheek because they know I made a smart decision.
you can even buy a brand new HSV and you are immediately a "cashed up bogan".
