A better G8 For the British, China, Arabia
Something you guys won't get and the British will from Australia...
Holden's new Commodore (US G8) is going to England as the Vauxhall VXR8
made by Holden's Special Vehicles division HSV.
Its actually an Australian HSV Clubsport R8 as a Vauxhall VXR8.(4-Door)
300 a year are expected to be sold in the UK or 6% of HSV's Production.
It will replace their Vauxhall Monaro or US Pontiac GTO.
307kw 6.0 Litre V8, six speed Auto or Stick.
Magnetic Ride Control Won't be part of their package.
The Car is also going to Middle East as a Chevrolet.
China as a Buick and the regular VE Commodore is also
off to Europe as my guess an Opel Omega.
The Pontiac G8 comes off the GM Holden's regular Commodore production line
without the detour to HSV Division.
From WHEELS.

Bastards! I want to know specifically what they're doing to that L92 to get 411hp out of it. It must be heads/cam changes... the regular 6.0L L92 is 362hp
If they do decide to bring it over, it'll probably be the Pontiac G8 GXP.
