From the last picture the Commodore will have a pyro style pop up bonnet for pedestrian safety. Front interior looks fine, back seat looks flat though.

Sadly I believe that the one you pictured would have been a more reliable & better built car in it's time. :hide:Quote:

Here's the official Holden media release. Carsguide mentioned that it will only come out with the 230kW V6 which is better than the 2.0L offered elsewhere.

If that happens, it will sell about as well as the current Holden Insignia (VFACTS report 43 sold for the Dec16 quarter)
Unfortunately I think you'll prove to be correct. If Holden want to be serious about numbers then the pricing will need to be right. Can't see that happening with the RRP they are in the UK for the 2.0L range topping model.Quote:

The problem Holden are going to have is that the current Commodore is their best seller. In March 2081 Commodores were sold. Second was Colorado with 1927. If NG doesn't come close to those numbers then there is going to be a huge hole to fill.

I will keep my VY Wagon. Its very practical and goes well. I just need to upgrade my speakers to handle new head unit. It was the first car i brought new.
Yes very well said, hence most Holden dealers are very busy shrinking their "Holden" sales foot print as they know the Imported priced up FWDQuote:

This is why you see dealers suddenly signing up to other makes of franchise or moving their other makes next to Holden's products.
Yes they will slip down in sales in 2018 along with Ford and their not so happy customers or customer service.
Times are certainly changing over to the Japanese / Thai and Koreans makes for now.
