Rachel Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 The latest issue of Motor magazine down here supposedly has a sneak peek. I haven't had a chance to look at an issue yet (I generally avoid the Oz car mags due to their GMH and Ford bias)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RacingRed Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Well there'll definitely be one, GM hasn't put the money into a new FR platform for nothing. A little concerned if theres a convertible appearing first, a four seat poser is hardly going to satisfy traditional Monaro and HSV fans. Lets just hope that they aren't refocusing the model.

Se5aScott Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Looks like vauxhall are going to have a four door version here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSE Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Both horrible, prefer what I have. The four door is almost a dead cert and will be known as the VXR R8. Local Vaux dealer has already been intouch and offered me a price against the 4 door, but they can keep it thanks, prefer 2 door cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac_Terrorist Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Those pics of the 4 door version look like a Vectra with a body kit added. Much prefer the 2dr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachel Posted February 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 They are "common as muck" down here those body-kitted HSV makeovers... The nicest current Commodore model IMHO is the current SS - it is straight from factory, not via Tom Walkinshaw's dodgy HSV line, and looks great and goes like hot off a warm shovel.
