I like fast cars, ie ones that can turn corners and go fast on straights and corners.
Neither ford's or holdens feature.

But the meme was kind of funny...

Time for you to go get in a Focus RS and Astra RS. I drove both in the UK last year. The Ford is completely mental, whilst the Astra is just mildly mad. I did 3,000 miles around Scotland and the North of England on the back roads and had a blast.

Here is my prediction...Holden is gone as NZ and Aus is their only market. The best sellers will be branded the same as their stable mates over seas...(Opels, Vauxhalls, etc) There is too much money to be had in the Ute, SUV and large car market, but not enough to justify separate branding and models for a couple of smaller volume (sales wise) countries...

Commodore is sold overseas as a Vauxhall. I don't know what he Colorado is marketed as in the US etc but it is likely that brand will turn up here. Possibly with a restructure and rebranding.....

"Vauxhall/Opal is sold here as Holden!"

Up-Armoured Land Cruisers.

Got a feeling I've seen somewhere that the Colorado Z71 is a Chevrolet Z71 in the States.............could be wrong

The current Commodore was an orphan once GM sold Opel and Vauxhall to Peugeot in 2017. Peugeot agreed to make the car until the early 2020's and then it was going to be moving on to it's own platforms. To show people how bad General Motors is as a company, Opel lost money for 20 years and Peugeot made Opel profitable in 18 months by eliminating all the waste and inefficiencies.

Really to save Holden the only option was to have bundled Holden in with the Opel and Vauxhall sale to Peugeot.

289 302 351= Ford 253 308 = gm

Sure, Chev had a 302 but it never went in production Holdens.

Isuzu will likely be going; "Hmmmmmmmm..........."
