A few in the darker colour

Love the darker interior.

A few nice touches

manual shifter position looks good, maybe tall drinks won't get in the way!

I believe that is the auto mate.

From some of the renders which were floating around and the supposed "spy shots" I was a bit skeptical about this car looking good. But seeing it now I think its fantastic! Love all the new tech they have finally included in it. I think the exterior/interior package as a whole has really lifted to be on par with other world class vehicles. So far I have liked almost everything I have seen. The shape of the front seats in the pictures with the white/black stripe look a little funny but, I think I could live with that

Aside from the back (which looks bland) the rest of the package looks very impressive.

The back is disgusting. It is like having to look at Serena Williams when you want to be watching Gauge.

I'm so glad I have a VE series 1. And now I'm convinced it will probably be the newest commodore I will ever own as the I do not like the new one

+1 - Clubby will not get replaced until wrecked, then it will be German V8s only.

Interior looks like a Hyundai

Yeah and which one is that? Which part is that also? The stitched leather dash? The Suede?

I have not seen one Korean car where the materials are actually nice internally, they look good from afar but up close they are horrible cheap and nasty hard plstics.

Dead F#%*KEN SET, some people are just way too hard to please!! That is by far the best ever looking car to come out of either holden or ford. And for the record, I own a new boss 335 Gt. The Calais makes the ve and my car look very old. I also own a ve calais for my wife, and I can safely say, her next will be a 6 ltr VF CalaisV. Good Job Holden. I'm in love with this car and I haven't even test drove it yet.

Not loving the SS sneak peeks there I must say. Especially the mega black plastic mouth.

Wonder if in a few years I will feel "mature aged" enough to want a Calais V instead?

I'd happily buy a Calais if it had a manual option

[6_litre_man]

Personally im not over the moon about, i mean it looks good but i dont absolutely love it.

My question is how is the ute going to look with that front end, personally i just cant imagine it, to me its going to look all sorts of weird. Will be interesting thats for sure

Cheers

My old Dicovery 3 had the electric handbrake and they are utterly brilliant.

If you're on a steep hill, flick the brake on and once it senses the car is about to move forward it automatically releases.

No more handbrake turns in new Commodores coz they won't engage while in motion.

Seeing an Electric Handbrake, Keyless Start and a pretty decent attempt to make the interior makes me actually want to by one.

I haven't seen the SS yet but if it's full of shiny black plastic I am out of there - alternatively though my mind it ticking over on just how I can modify it already.

It will be good to get some other specs.

I pulled my S1 Stereo out the other day to replace it with a Holden IQ and all I can say is that it re-affirmed my view that the VE was seriously lacking in attention to detail and quality on the interior and that is even on my SSV!

I just tried to get on the Holden website and it timed out - seems the VF has stuck some interest.

are they doing a wagon version of this ???? wagon and ute and hsv will be interesting !!!
