New Holden Commodore

Thought i'd post a pic of the new Holden Commodore SS just released here in Australia. It's a 6.0 Litre V8 generating 270KW at standard form, with HSV (Holden Special Vehicles) uprating it to 330KW.

This is the HSV version.
The SS goes from 0-100Km/h in about 4.9 Seconds. Handling wise, it's got macpherson struts, suspension with Electornic Brake assist, traction control and Electronic brake distribution and many more electronic assist stuff..hehe...all that for AU$52,000 or about 21,000 Pounds.
