MisterZ ◊ 2018-12-13 07:16	Information about this vehicle ITP001 (note that the plate is now on a 2009 Ferrari): Link to "www.shannons.com.au" In summary, although it looks like a 2009+ HSV, this vehicle is actually a 2006 build. It started out as a HSV Senator, but it was "made over" into a GTS by HSV themselves in December 2006. Later in it's life, it was again "made over" into a series II (E2) with the facelifted front end and new wheels. The car has been in numerous magazines. The colour is not standard, its called "Lamborghini Verde". So, it should be listed as 2006 HSV GTS. Basically, it's still an HSV, but it's just undergone 2 conversions instead of 1 (all HSVs are converted Commodores). There is, however, one clue that this car wasn't originally a GTS - the chrome trim around the window frames. Only Senators (based on Calais) had this chrome. Clubsport/GTS had black trim around the windows (note that the VF GTS re-introduced the chrome trim around the windows). -- Last edit: 2019-12-06 11:45:22
