OK, so there’s no V8, it’s front wheel drive or all wheel drive, it’s smaller, and it’s imported from Germany.

No.

Hell no.

God fucking damn no.

Glad I’m picking up my final V8 one in a few weeks time.

Fuck this shit I’m out.

Without the V8 interceptor I worry for the future of Australia.

You know, I don’t hate it. But it just seems wrong to call it a Commodore. It’s like taking the Ford Mustang, and turning the nameplate into a 7 seat minivan. It could be the nicest minivan in the world, but using the Mustang nameplate for something like that is just, wrong.

Call it Calais, or Kingswood, or Senator, or Torana, or just come up with a new name for it. Not Commodore though.

I searched for the rego (1HY1IT) here and got the message:

Unable to provide portal response. Please contact VicRoads Contact Centre during business hours on telephone number 131171.

Different to the “Record not found” when searching for an unknown rego. Most unusual

Assemble at Holden HQ and threaten to raze it to the ground if the V8s don’t come back.

Yeah. There’s issues getting orders through at the moment, next year looks like the special editions and a select few makes will be built, that’s it.

WHY WOULD THEY REPLACE THE COMMODORE WITH THAT GARBAGE?

The Falcon is gone too - can you even buy a full-size RWD V8 sedan in Australia anymore?

Because - I don’t know - people weren’t buying large V8s anymore? Market forces and all that.

“First shots of the 2018 not a Commodore”

FTFY.

On the other hand, I’m just old enough to remember the wailing and gnashing of teeth last time GM decided to replace an Aussie V8 icon with some imported German crapmobile:

Pop prediction: in a couple of years time HSV will discover they can squeeze trim turbos under the hood of the Insigniadore and disconnect the front wheels from the4wd version.
