    theyre what the cops use and some taxi's here so theyre essentially fleet vehicles, but theres some good variants like the SS with the 250kw V8, SV6/190kw V6, Calais and of course the LWB Statesman and Monaro coupe with their various spin-offs.

    that SSX isn't actually a Holden production car, it was a concept car Holden made to show of its AWD system.

    The chev badges always look funny on the holdens to me. Like something they just stuck there
    In the pic's of the intiria i also noticed no climate with the leather
    And the passenger has the handbrake

    Even in OZ we use the lumina name on a special edition car only.
