    Default Jeremy said it: It's official - New HSV

    There's a lot of commotion on Aussie boards about the last of the Zeta (G8) platform from now until 2017, what is being developed to replace it, and should it still carry the Commodore moniker.
    Here's the new HSV version, based on what the new "Commodore" will look like:

    Compression is King. Race-built VVT brawler hauler with Stingray tune.

    Supernaturally as-pirated, all-alcohol, all-motor.

    It fits the V6 turbo so I think V8 would fit?

    Man that is sharp.
    AWD would be nice, but if it became an option to have v6/awd or lt1,lt4/rwd, I would still skip the v6.
    Front end reminds me of the Audi R8. Like those too!
