So I'm in Sydney for work this week. There's been tons of sweet cars; unfortunately I've seen nearly all of them while driving, so getting a good picture has been pretty much impossible. I did however spot this one when we stopped at the beach yesterday. Not a big fan of the tail lights or wheels, but I love the color, and I think the picture turned out pretty well.

You're not alone. It's usually a certain age group who go for that stuff.
Drop into a Holden dealership and get pics, they usually don't mind.
Find a dealership with a Lionsden outlet and pick up clothing and merchandise.
Our seasons are opposite to the Northern hemisphere so cold weather clothing for back home will be at its cheapest now in Oz.

And if they do mind, give CP a call... he's got your back.

Is there an easy way to tell which dealerships have a Lion's Den? I'm staying up by Hyde Park, and my customer is down by the airport. I see plenty of dealerships, I'm just not sue which one would have the gear.

Just go to the biggest dealership you normally drive past.
Failing that, the nearest Lionsden I see is about 10 miles west from Hyde Park, towards Parramatta.

Nope nothing is missing the "rear bumper" is actually two seperate pieces on each corner.

number of states have already accepted our tender which augers well for strong orders," Holden boss Mike Devereux said. "California, Arizona, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Maryland, Michigan and North Carolina, to name a few. They placed orders and more are expected."

However, Holden still would not disclose a final figure on how many cars will be shipped in the initial batch early next year.
and to get back on topic is that a HZ Ute?
and does anybody know if the HZ Ute was made LHD for export anywhere?

Its a VY SS , from 2003ish.
HZ was from 1977ish, did you mean VZ from late 2004-2006 era?
