Ignore the hate, David's the best reviewer from drive, really seems to get everything about the cars. His reviews are great, because they're classy whilst not being snobby
People don't understand that this is a collectors car. And if all you bogans actually had the money for one you wouldn't be able to buy one anyway. They've all been sold
Let me guess, comments section full of people who don't like and can't afford a HSV new, hating, 'bogan this, holden dat", sound like the bogans themselves, when did we become a nation of haters on something that would be so much fun?
I spoke to a hsv dealer in February so including the bullshit luxury car tax, stamp duty, dealer delivery (another outrageous rip off) registration and insurance you are looking at over 200k for this. You could easily buy a redline and buy top shelf aftermarket upgrade kits that would leave this thing eating your dust and still have 100 k left over.
guarantee you'll see car lots selling them for 50k within in a decade, at the end of the day its nothing special just a slightly faster GTS with an outdated engine
Cykoid Bahahaha, these w1s' will not go down in price, and $170k is drive away price dumb asses, how do i know?, i was on the list to get one of these. Find me a w427 for sale under $90k, given its almost ten yrs old, and compared to a m3 of same era
Why do people feel the need to be so negative about this car. every single this you buy these days is overpriced. And you're not the one building or buying and driving the car so no one cars if you don't like it
What's wrong with that? Most people watch reviews of cars they can't afford or can't buy, and yet you're here aren't you? Would you like me to start sending you links to any video with the W1 in it, so you can bitch about it and post sour comments?
In a market where the Corvette, Viper and Demon isn't even sold here. It's a send off car, not supposed to be for the mainstream market, after a few years it's already worth so much more then those cars now too.
you're telling me, wait till they put it on the dyno lol they talking it up on all this car reviews when it'll get wiped by a f6 with Shockwork coilovers lol Plus i heard they use titanium rods :L like really?
Beast60 it's got potential to make huge power easily, but who's going to mod this thing, be instantly worthless. I'm hoping someone honest puts one on a dyno. I'm intrigued to see the readouts. Low 4 sec to 100 with semi slicks and full traction suggest around 320-350rwkw if it weighs around the same as a LSA gts.
Man, i wouldnt touch that motor. From what ive heard from my mate who has a LSA GTS he retuned at a Pro Shop and within 2months the engine stuffed out. His tuner told him the motor basically glass lol like every LS
Beast60 I guess there's good and bad motors in every batch. My younger brother ran about 450rwkw through a single turbo set up on a stock vf ss ls3 bottom end for about a year and a bit before he sold it. A lot of it comes down to the tune I believe. Cost him a fucking arm and a leg in parts and labour. At least 4 times more than it cost me to get 500rwkw.
Tom Fanshawe yeah seemed to work with the limited w427. 155grand now not even half that. Maybe if you don't drive this and keep it for 50years it might make money, might.
i remember a demo event i went to, they tested the W427 against an BF F6 to see how the extra power of the LS7 would flatten the competition, it lost by almost 2 car lengths
I drove one this week ...It's just so cheap and plasticky inside .... the doors feel like closing a cheap suitcase compared to anything Japanese or European
Well i own a Lexus RC-F at the moment so yes i can afford it. But in compassion the GS-F is of higher grade of finish. this is why i would "rather buy" then your behind the curve 170k thirsty commodore that falls apart in 100 meters.
I'm simply stating that you could spend almost the same money if not less on a prestige car of higher quality then a commodore that needs the petrol station attached to it. Plus the factory is closing so buying a car that is behind the curve in a year is already a put off. im sure the HSV is nice, but in a logical sense i would put money else where.
dont watch the vid if you dont like holdens haters an anyways who ended up shutting down first? have your shitty bara engine i owned 3 an swore i was done with ford affter the last . absolute rubbish. holden all day
Harley Davidson Breakout Ducati Panigale 1299 Theres a sth park episode that is really fond of harleys, u should check it out, seems to be right down your alley, u know what i mean lol
What an idiot...must be a HOLDEN owner....Take you biased Holden glasses off and see what a real Australian engine , not a Frankenstein LSA from Murrica can do...Standard form of F6 is 310 kw and 565 Nm from 1900 rpm right through to 5200 rpm...Then you get around 325 to 380 kw on the FGX and well over 630 Nm ..For a third of the price...and more usable ...
Ignore the hate, David's the best reviewer from drive, really seems to get everything about the cars. His reviews are great, because they're classy whilst not being snobby
This will be a collectors car. Want one despite the hefty price!
People don't understand that this is a collectors car. And if all you bogans actually had the money for one you wouldn't be able to buy one anyway. They've all been sold
Congratulations! You realised that you can spend YOUR money on what YOU want! Thank you for sharing your opinion.
जॉन सीना Jhon Sina thanks for stating the obvious..fords trash
Jonathan _ what r u talking about stating the obvious? I didn’t see anyone say holdens were shit.
जॉन सीना Jhon Sina their worth a lot more then that 😂
The best car on sale today. A monster.
nicely explained mate.. I just want one!
I dig this car.
You just had to put "and I JUST WANT ONE" in there lol
and he just had to have a sly dig at the FPV GT-F...not necessary

Good review !
Send these to the states please Detroit to be specific 😍😍

hsv8s exactly, the level of self loathing is incredible, mostly from those who are jealous or will never drive one.
manuals arent "old school" thier called "motor-sporting" . Automatic computer trash is cancer upon racing and cars in general
What a ridiculous thing to say... auto is cancer?

I do things out of spite then in 10 years time this thing is worth double and yours is worth nothing.

Agree look at resale for all these so called special editions
Cykoid
Bahahaha, these w1s' will not go down in price, and $170k is drive away price dumb asses, how do i know?, i was on the list to get one of these.
Find me a w427 for sale under $90k, given its almost ten yrs old, and compared to a m3 of same era
@John Winzil no relevant or valid argument and giving your self a thumbs up, way to make yourself look like a lifeless idiot kid.
Why do people feel the need to be so negative about this car. every single this you buy these days is overpriced. And you're not the one building or buying and driving the car so no one cars if you don't like it
Fuckin hell ,it looks like a cheese grater ! I hope you don't run over anyone!
Review a car that's sold out? Great idea.
What's wrong with that? Most people watch reviews of cars they can't afford or can't buy, and yet you're here aren't you? Would you like me to start sending you links to any video with the W1 in it, so you can bitch about it and post sour comments?
Big Daddy Maca Listen to you carry on like a big sook. This car isn't made for anyone but a select few collectors. Even with money, you can't buy it.
Your right mate, I'm just a big sook. I'm sure I'll catch you in the comments on any other video of the W1 on youtube...
A handful of Bogan Common Doors for 300 million Bogans, what do you expect of course they are going to be sold out.
like!!
170k for a jazzed up commodore?, that's Nissan GT-R, C7 Z06, Dodge Viper and Demon Money
Cykoid
But with better resale and reliability, dry sump anyone!
In the Drivers car of the year thing it was faster round a race track than the new GTR.
Except this is made in Australia. Who the fuck would buy a gtr when you could buy this ?

#RhiannaBadgedIt
Still gets chopped by an f6
um no you fool
Lmao dreaming
Barra the world
@John Winzil typical v8 owner always getting gapped 😂😂😂
Stickered up fpv Gt-r doesn't lie about it power figures, why don't you tell everyone how that 474kw is a low 380rwkw 😂
Beast60 380rwkw that's like 3400rpm for me. What a waste of a forged bottom end 6.2L.
you're telling me, wait till they put it on the dyno lol they talking it up on all this car reviews when it'll get wiped by a f6 with Shockwork coilovers lol Plus i heard they use titanium rods :L like really?

surprised he didnt say anything about the steering wheel being right in his lap......must be a ford thing.
chris454350 nope, just how big his guts are.
$170K.....!!!!! I'll choose Nissan Gtr if for that price if I have the money to spent... loved the car though
dshiningsword
IF U had that $, and even then, go launch control, and tell me how warranty goes after that lol
Beat a GTR round the track...
@@jd0192 good joke
Maybe review push bikes for a few weeks.
Vxr8 Bathurst s, £90000. Bargain.
Too much of a fat engine and weight v8s are not all that fast tbh just burnout kings
what a belly
Waste of money! And for the keyboard warrior who says it will go up in value invest your money in shares or a house it will go up more!
The evidence actually suggests that if you could get your hands on one of these it would be a better investment than a house!
Tom Fanshawe yeah seemed to work with the limited w427. 155grand now not even half that. Maybe if you don't drive this and keep it for 50years it might make money, might.
sounds like to much what the cat licks its ass with, if you ask me !
102nds daily
Show me a w427 at half price in the last month
i remember a demo event i went to, they tested the W427 against an BF F6 to see how the extra power of the LS7 would flatten the competition, it lost by almost 2 car lengths
if only these things where AWD
BRZ 666 lmao no that would ruin Holden commodores
@@TheBabyOstritchesCold well they made an AWD monaro.
I drove one this week ...It's just so cheap and plasticky inside .... the doors feel like closing a cheap suitcase compared to anything Japanese or European
LOL no you didn't
xD nah this 8 year old drove one.
He sat in his parents VN commodore last week. He knows what he's talking about.
170K for a cough cough Technically a commodore....Hmm i rather buy a Lexus GS-F.
v patron Rather buy, but still can't buy, now go pay same price for something slower, even the clubsport showed up the lexus at half price
Well i own a Lexus RC-F at the moment so yes i can afford it. But in compassion the GS-F is of higher grade of finish. this is why i would "rather buy" then your behind the curve 170k thirsty commodore that falls apart in 100 meters.

You come onto a clip about a hsv, yet you supposedly own a lexus, and make hater comments, keep on hating hater
