What car is this and why does it look so frickin familiar? It's gotta be some sort of old Japanese luxobarge...

Never mind, just noticed the little 'Commodore' script on the side of the front bumper...man, that is a nice looking Holden!

Based on an Opel.

But with the option of a 202ci I6 or 308 V8 and reenngineered for Aussie condition.

Ah, the Opel connection makes sense but the Holden looks better!

Forbidden fruit for us here in the U.S. (well, not really since it's older than 25 yrs so we could import one...)

Based on two Opels, actually. Front end of a Senator grafted onto the cabin of a Rekord. On account of you couldn't fit an Oz sized engine under the Rekord hood.

Have no idea. Never looked into importing, I might though in a few years when I can get my own car...

Thanks, I was confused as to why it looked like both. We had a Rekord, not a bad car, but the interior was all blue. Ah the '80's.
