Oh, so beautiful...

Except for the tacked-on rear wheel-well.

Who needs a bodykit?

Oh and- I'm sure it's quicker than this.

Road & Track got a stock C4S coupe to go from 0-60mph in 4.1 seconds, with the RS4 it was compared against not being far behind, at 4.3.

If it looks like an RS4 can stay with this thing, which it can't, they're being conservative.

Holdens are crap.

Built in a barn by animals.

Their technology is 20 years behind the rest of the world, and to make things worse, they only make one car, the Commodore.

What kind of mainstream car brand only builds one type of car?

Oh, but there are crappy variants too. Like ones with more chrome, ones with sporty seats, ones with cloth seats....etc.

Overall, a worthless brand with no international presence.

Eat that vmarkiv

I really don't get it either.

There's not one admirable thing about Holden.

They just make crap cars that are only sold in Australia.

I think the car looks great. As far as the estimated 0-60 time. I would'nt be surprised if it was accurate. Its funny how good the factory engineers can be when you have 10 times the R&D money. I've seen comparison test where a less powerful factory car will perform as well or better than a tuned example.

Having said that, your all probably right, the time is probably understated.

Uhh...

We were saying how the 0-60 time ISN'T accurate. It's too slow.

The 355hp Carrera 4S coupe has been clocked FASTER than this version.
