   (...) Well, you aussies have something pretty nifty in that score... the Holden Commodore as tricked out by HSV. 405 HP from a production automobile, does the quarter mile in 5.3 seconds, tops out around 170 MPH or so, 6 speed manual, red and black (...)

        Re: S@H as sharp as ever...And as useful as Lego Australia —Tom Stangl
     Uh, you obviously mistyped that 1/4mile ET - 405hp doesn't get you down the 1/4 in 5.3 seconds (unless the car weighs about 600 lbs) - in fact, my car takes 12.7 or so at near 400hp, and it's not a heavyweight. Now, 0-100kph in 5.3 I can believe - (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jun-01, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

     (...) Yes, sorry, that was the 0-60 time, not the quarter. Brain check. One thing to note that since this is a commie, it's a RWD 4 door sedan. Looks kind of like a Catera, which I think it shares components with but I think it's a bit bigger. And (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jun-01, to lugnet.loc.au)

   (...) I'm pretty sure that GM are exporting some to the US, for use by police departments. Supposedly, wide-bodied, big-engined rear-wheel-drive sedans aren't built in the states any more, only front wheel drives. Police like the rear-wheel drive. (...)
