0-100kph in 4.97sec!!
Surely we need to stop thinking of the HSV as a "re-vamped" holden and start putting it into the catergory of "near-supercar". They have...but i don't think the public think that quite yet. Either way, you can't argue with 4.97sec and 285kph top speeds, classy interior and the latest technology to match Ferrari; all for under $80k
Nothing in Europe uner $200,000 matches this performance apparently!
i wish i had one....

Crashed a jet-dragster at 470+kph while filming...apparently there are rumours of brain damage.
not good,

And that's what creates danger on the roads.
