[moocwo2]

stupid question of the day- will this car be available in the US anytime soon?

[k2mountainhigh]

This car is only going to be in australia, as 427 of them were ever made.

[Kollif]

$150k is too much, this is for rich idiots who want something unique and mildly quick straight off the floor.... i'd rather dump $70-80k on a hsv and then spend that again on upgrades/tuning etc

[rhysc375]

Yeh this thing went well :-/

[RichKilla86ers]

its like a ZR1 sedan

[RXHardstyle]

@Kollif even rich idiots wouldnt buy this when a porsche priced the same with less power will eat this

[RXHardstyle]

@k2mountainhigh that was the original intention. in the end only 138 were made

[jam3sV]

if this has 370kw then why are they saying the new gt is the most powerfull aussie car??

[sammerron]

@FormulaOneFan4Eva instead a bunch of stupid aussies will take the holden badge off and put a chev badge on it

[zakattak1234]

@k2mountainhigh correction they were going to build 427, but they ended up building just under 200.

[tonymac71]
