Funny how the Hellcat over here is the "rarely seen" equivalent of the Commy SS over there, haha. If you lined them up side by side in New Zealand and asked someone to pick one, they'd probably take the "rare" american muscle over the Australian variant.

Tasman McMillan This is a Chevy SS just with Holden badges. The SS is all we get in the US. The man in Denver converts the Chevy SS into Holden vehicles that use the same planform. Its the only legal way I am aware of where you can have a Maloo Ute in the US with a US title.
@tasmanmcmillan1777 7 жыл бұрын
Abe Lincoln The chassis of a commodore ute is quite different to the sedan and wagon versions. A lot safer and cheaper to import one and convert. It's the same way with importing any vehicle to any country. Follow the legal requirements of your transport agency and tax department and it should be fine. People have been doing it for decades with the mustang and american ute range into australia. It's also the same in reverse.

With the shit engine though, the American SS always got the LS3, only the 2016 refresh got it in Australia - prior to that it was the horribly hobbled and feeble L77, unless you bought an HSV model at a huge increase in price - so if you are paying 30K for a 2014 model you are getting a car that can get its ass handed to it by a $8,000 Nissan Stagia (and any number of other much cheaper cars).

I love both the SS and the Hellcats, I've always had a soft spot for the SS and considered getting one. But in my opinion the chargers have WAY more road presence. To the average person this looks like a Malibu with a paint job, only car enthusiasts can appreciate the SS for how special it is. The charger is styled much more aggressively, and it has "what is that" factor. But they do have a point, you wont find an SS in a rental fleet, but i see tons of chargers in rental fleets. Either way both the Hellcats and the SS are awesome cars and I want to own both some day.

The Chassis was designed for this reason. As for the rest.... HSV. Made it even more tight and true.

Hello from Australia. Imagine what it would be like in a manual. We have base model SS in our work fleet, they're very very nice to drive. Very powerful as a factory car. Commodores are roomy, affordable, long lasting. My personal car is an older V6 that still burns off modern cars at the lights. When they're gone, it will be a sad day for motoring.

THE SHO IS BETTER FOR THE VALUE
@dalevonstraussenburger4999 8 жыл бұрын
Dan Sasala the SHO is a WAY better car in my opinion.I had a 1995 SHO and that thing was a beast.
@seadaecday 8 жыл бұрын
Dan Sasala is it though? Slower stock, I hear the ecoboost engines arent nearly as reliable as these GM LS's, more expensive to modify, whats the advantage of the SHO?
@salsathe4th 8 жыл бұрын
Arent reliable? haha give me some facts about the ENGINE. After a $300 tune you are already over 400 HP. You can get a used SHO for way cheaper then an SS. And since it looks just like a Taurus its an even better sleeper.
@justinbeamon6624 8 жыл бұрын
The sho drives exactly like a big heavy sedan with 350 hp. Not even remotely as fun to drive as an ss. It's nice but somehow bigger outside but less room on the inside compared to an ss. Sounds like shit. 6 speed automatic slightly better but nothing special. Definitely not a better value. Yah you can tune but that's pretty much it. Nothing in the aftermarket besides tune and some exhaust. LS has one of the biggest aftermarket of any engine.
@justinbeamon6624 8 жыл бұрын
Still a sho is a great sleeper but not sure it's a better value than a ss, definitely not a better car.

I think the owner should swap out the 6L80E for the 6L90E. Or even the Tremec 6060 manual that comes stock in the 2015 Chevy SS. The 6L80E tends to melt and fuse clutches when higher than stock horsepower and torque is applied. Even when it is modded. The boys at Circle D Specialties in Houston TX seem to be the most knowledgeable on these transmissions.

I was in Sydney 3 months ago and the company rented me 2016 Holden Commodore SV6 Storm (6 cylinder with GPS) from AVIS which I picked up at the airport. Contrary to what these two guys said, it felt heavy. yes it may have ~ 280 HP, 257 lb-ft of torque but on the way to Katoomba? three sisters mountain, a Ford Falcon out accelerated me on the modest uphill. In summary: heavy and lack low rpm torque.

It is funny watching this as an Australian, these are everywhere, the low spec commodore is the most common car here. On a 15min drive I will see at lest 5, one of which will be a sports model like this one.

You guys may get the LSA version of the SS soon... here in Aussie land, the HSV R8 makes 536hp and the GTS makes 577hp from the factory. But they lose a lot of power through their heavy duty drivelines.... expect around 460whp (DynoJet) for the stock GTS

Visibility is probably just OK. You need something like a Mercedes W210 or old Honda Accord to get at least good visibility.

It is the only current 4-door sedan that you can buy new in America with a manual transmission that is RWD, naturally aspirated and has a big motor in it. Everything is going to automatics or dual clutches.
