For me it was a bucket list of a car. Like you, I never imagined I'd own one. Mines a 2016 blue Chevrolet SS M6. Makes all the right sounds👍 More commodore content please!
Also, can we all just take a second to appreciate that straight up skyporn that good ol' mother mature brewed up for our boi here while he was filming? Such a banger sunset for a car reveal/feature 👌🏻
bro sick car never thought you'd own a Holden 👌 my mrs nan just turned 70 & she has a black vf gts with the supercharged lsa lol...fastest car I've ever driven
I had a hire car SV6 on a holiday in NZ and ran around doing 225kph on the backroads around Christchurch airport. Good times. V8's must be scarier. Nearly forgot, did 240kph in a turbo 4 cylinder Commodore over there as well recently. Just when Holden made good cars they folded. Shame...
The VFII is the only Holden to have gotten the LS3, they had previously been reserved for the HSV's as a means to make the brand a more exclusive purchase option for the additional cost of them along with brakes and a few other upgrades as well. Due to Holden's closure in 2017, mutual agreement made it possible for the last ever Holden Commodore V8's to go out in style with that beautiful ls3 motor. Best for last as they say.
congrats on new car :) re house, another option, buy some land, build a 4/6 car garage, put a 30ft static caravan on it, leave space for to build a house over time etc :)
Hey, very nice VFII, sounds very nice and you have binned the Crome for black on the front, side panels and back, looks perfect. Just all black and white. I have owned mine since new for 5 years now all stock, only done 14500k, and the only difference is I have a third pedal. Every car has been a manual. Great car, cheers.
Love those Holdens with the LS motor 🤘🔥 I'd love one after my P plates, probably a VZ or a VE. I currently drive a little naturally aspirated six cylinder FG-X ute but she goes good for now, and she's manual so I can't complain. Beautiful, awesome car my dude! 💯🔥
Driving without the traction control is part of the fun, leave stability on incase it gets wild I normally do that, I love the rears turning thou adds some fun to it
Congrats. My wife, yes my wife has a stock 2016 Redline in Nitrate Silver, affectionatley called "Rocky". I admit when I do get to drive it and get on it, it's more than I can handle, but it always puts a smile on my face. Only problem is it chews through rear tyres with all that torque. Currently looking to replace worn out Hankook ventus S1 evo's. What tyres do you run?
Nice, ls3 engines are so simple to get big power out of I've done big cam setup on mine and now currently fitting a harrop 2300 on it, good choice finally seen the light ay bro 👊👌
Congrats on the cool ride man, I really like the white colour. I bought the 430kw Super Charged GTS back in 2015, it's a beast lol. And your right it's a very tidy investment for sure, value has gone through the roof over the last few years. Not sure how many km you're has but if you can keep them down you will always get a good resale price. In the mean time enjoy the ride and keep it straight 👍
Yep been there done that. Sounds good on the outside...... Same stuff cammed etc (I did my own). Actually changed mine twice because the first one I was going to add a supercharger and decided against it, so I threw in a more suitable cam. Unforuantely there was a XR6T with a big turbo being a bit of a dhead in traffic one night when my brother was in the car with me, so I caught up and was beside him at some lights (told him to have a crack and he was up for it - he thought he'd walk me). Absolutely destroyed the ford (gapped), unforunately a flash followed (speed camera), lost me licence. I wasn't familiar with the area and I was tired (felt like an idiot.... had to phone the woman eek) Decided to sell it after that too tempting and needed a 7 seater anyway. Gotta say I don't miss the fuel consumpion or the rego costs.... definately miss the power but Australia's such a nanny country, you can't do nothing in this stupid country.
Ive got a 2013 ssv redline and on Thursday im getting 2017 series ii. I cant wait having 2 of these bad boys parked in my garage next to each other. Mad car bro
Fucken awesome bro. Been a follower for a few years and never thought you'd take the V8 route. I just sold my E3 clubby wagon and I'm missing it now lol
That's sick! I got my vz maloo r8 factory manual around about 2 months before hsv closed its doors and its already worth like 10k more then I got it for, currently parked up coz I got too trigger happy on the motorway and now I have to save and fix it 🤣🤣 I will though, I'll never sell it
@@MayhemInc yeh it looks and sounds great. I have an o4 v8 statesman with 50k on clock that kept stock. I wonder whether to just mod it and have fun or keep for investment
Hey welcome to the club bro 😎 In January 2016 I went looking for the same car however the demand was so great nothing was available, (I wanted white also). As luck may have it I came across a brand new white 2015 340kw HSV Clubsport for virtually the same change over price. At the time the new LSA Clubsport were being introduced. It’s a shame Holden had to go. It would have been exciting to see what they would have produced now.
Fuck I miss my VF2.. I sold it for an I30N now I own an XR6 Turbo. I'd have another VF again in a heartbeat. I'm telling you now.. if you sell this car you won't get into another V8 again unless it's an SS or Mustang. V8's are dying. Hold onto it with your life
I gotta say. The auto trans in these is good enough for me to not get a manual. I've been in a few super cars. But these are def the coolest thing I driven and maybe ever been in. The pulsing and twisting at idol is soo cool but gives me a dam headache
Nice man love my one 2016 as well in the jungle green just don't have the work done yet eventually when I have the spare cash ill be all in. For now its in the garage keeping the kms low the price high lol
Hate to break it to you champ, but you like me, bought the wrong car at the right time. The Redline SS is basically the 3rd car in the hierarchy. The best Commodore, in bang for buck and options list, is the Craig Lowndes Motorsport Limited Edition. Magride suspension, electric Recaro 10 point memory seats for driver and passenger and 20 inch rims instead of the 19's.... But it doesn't end there. The second best Commodore ever made was the Calais Director. Same list as the Motorsport. The SS was the everyday version.Only 1200 Motorsports and 360 Directors were made. Very limited runs.There is also a Magnum Ute, but that's for another day. Both the Motorsport and the Director have Level 3 race verification from Holden, meaning when in track mode they aren't really for the street. They're that good. But the SS is no slouch. I've got one and love it. But if I had my time and money again.....its a Motorsport for me.... I'll attach the clip from Holden. th-cam.com/video/sXKoy-E7xbw/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/gi9jil6FYEk/w-d-xo.html
Nice, great car and congrats, maybe a shame it's auto but then it's good it's auto for towing. Ps that number plate is cool, and kinda appropriate for the current world status.....
Beautiful car, please get the shadow chrome gts wheels, they are the only wheels that will do the car justice and they look amazing on the white with the red brakes
@@MayhemInc beautiful mate I’ve just purchased the same mines a 2016 SSV redline has the black out kit badges, grill, window trims, boot spoiler and black 20inch camoro rims aswell they do grow on ya as not many have them been a xair wheel or sold by Adam just a question how much did the vinyl wrap roof cost ya and is it gloss black wrap ?
Bro do you live out like near Rotorua / Kawerau cause the background at 9:56 looks near kawerau Edit: 10:50 thought so, lake rotoma was my old manu spot 😁😁
very nice sound mate would love to know who / brand of exhaust and cam ive looked at a ton and your sound has it all deep throat crakles n pops and the cam lump is there ive got the same just manual and red and about to do the cam exhaust heads ect love to know yours

You picked the perfect time to film bro, that sunset was sick!
ikr! its amazing
The first 2 seconds with the whine of the starter and the exhaust bursting to life gave me goosebumps. Why oh why did I sell my SSV
Congrats! These cars are absolutely insane. I have one the same in manual. Have fun and take care.

Carnt go wrong with the space on the inside mean for traveling.. this must fell like a mean weapon
I caught a glimpse of it in gizzy whilst at rnv! Sounds and looks insane!

Safe to say on behalf of your youtube subscribers .

Do u worry about resale. Cars like that are now pretty good investments. Interested in ur opinion
I believe it will sell very easily and has already gone up in price a lot since I purchased

Bro I thought you were cool before, but now you are a legend in my books. Nice choice in car.
Sick bro. My old man just sold his manual one exactly the same as yours 😥
Can confirm first hand those things r insane for what they are. Big fricken money good ya brother.

Sounds insane
Hey mate that thing is mint. With the up'd power output what k's are you roughly getting out of a full tank of fuel? cheers.
Love the vid. I was just wondering because I also have a VF if you know what Cam and exhaust system you have thanks
Do you know what the cam specs are? And does the auto have bigger stall?
Thats an absolute monster. Love it
Where do you buy the front lip spoiler from ? How much did the black roof wrap cost ya ?
I own a hsv and a s15 and the s15 is the more dangerous one that the mrs refuses to drive. Nice family car bro.

damn what a beauty bro, congrats
question is ........ how long will it be before you miss having a clutch pedal ... but then i guess that's not why you purchased it...
Sick bruv rotomas I thought I seen it go past me 😲🤣😂🤣😂😎🤘❤❤epic car bro😎
🇳🇿☝️Giz a LIMITER 🔥☝️🇳🇿
Things sounds wicked and looks tough on the road
How much did it cost to fux the stone chips and the cut and polish? If you dont mind me asking.
Hi mate, Sounds insane! I'm just about to go stage 5 in my VF Redline ute..What cam do you have in this weapon please bro?
@@Andrewstylianou its a custom cam so no specs sorry
Wooooow bro, nice bro thats dreams for me bro. Nice job Jazza
Nice VF, sounds great. What does 430 KW work out to at the tyres,350? The LS2 was installed in VZ and VE HSV only.
Hmm I thought the series 1 vf came with the ls2 - l77
No cathedral port heads for VE or VF Commodores.
Thats my mother inlaws partners old car goes nuts fun to drive man he did the work to it
Mean brother, what a beautiful piece of machinery 👌🏾👍🏾
Perfect. I love my Redline. Needs and exhaust and cam like this one though.
