If you were to buy a Holden, which model would it be?

[brett7777]

For me, it would have to be one of these

The new SC VF HSV could be worth a look when it comes out next year.

[Ben73]

I like the look of a black statesmen or caprice. The newer the better.

[strobe]

The cheapest/worst/most pink coloured one I could find. None of my friends or family would let me live it down, so I may as well just be laughed at by the whole planet.

[Road_Warrior]

If I had to...a V2 Monaro or a WM Grange.

[SteveJH]

No limits on money?

Got to be a W427.

[SSD-85]

Any model will do.

Need something for target practice....

Cmon, it had to be said.

The image in the original post is of a HSV, so I figured he was just limiting us to cars that uses Holden platforms.

The WM Caprice, or its cousin on steroids, the WM Grange. I guess these vehicles sort of go against the grain these days, a large luxury sedan, which might be part of the attraction. Possibly the idea that Holden is still producing what people want, albeit a smaller audience these days.

A report from the US this afternoon says General Motors is close to completing a new, twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 engine to combat Ford’s recently announced 3.5-litre EcoBoost unit, also twin-turbocharged.

According to a report from GM Inside News, several engineers at General Motors have confirmed the engine is in its later stages of development. The engine has been assigned the PRO code ‘LF3′ (GM’s naturally-aspirated 3.0-litre V6 has the PRO code ‘LF1′ – as pictured).

Although power and torque specifications have not yet been released, sources within the company say GM’s new twin-turbo V6 will produce similar figures to Ford’s 272kW offering – recently unveiled as the powerplant in Ford’s new Taurus-based Police Interceptor.

The report also said the new engine could find its way in to production cars as early as next year, possibly under the bonnet of the new Cadillac XTS.

Could we see a Twin Turbo 3.0 V6 in the VF Commodore next year?

Not if it overshadows SS it won't.

My choice would be an early GTS Monaro or a VL Walky.

[Grippy]

LJ XU1 or HQ GTS 2 door Monaro 350.

If I bought a Holden my son would call the men in white jackets. But he'd have to be quick because my wife and daughter would all be going for the phone at the same time!

If I bought a Holden I'd lose all my friends (yes probably both of them) and have no one to talk to.

If I bought a Holden I'd lose the opportunity (my whole reason for being) of bagging s h ! t on the losers and tossers in their backwards red caps.

Actually, if I bought a Holden it would be a Monaro. I can't believe it ... did I really say that?!

I second T3man. Only I dont have a son, a daughter, or even a wife. Plus I only have 1 friend....

Oh and it would be a manual Monaro CV8Z, as long as the build quality was good. Or a W427 if money was no object. Would even consider a V8 Torana, 308 not the 253.
