Yes... Holden has had real performance cars for years.



If it's not network news, it's probably the truth getting out.

Ya, so is Vauxhall in Great Britain(Europe) and so is Opel in Europe. They all use the eco motors, just slightly tuned differently. I've been to Australia and they have some really cool sports cars. Some of them still use leaded gas too.





Time to get it going again.....

The GTO here is the Holden HSV in Australia and they had it back in 2000. I remember, I went to the auto show there.

Most people know, yes. Just to fill you in, the following brands are all owned by GM:

Buick
Cadillac
Chevrolet
Daewoo Motor
GMC
Holden
HUMMER
Opel
Pontiac
Saturn
Saab
Vauxhall
(forgive me if I missed any)

GM also holds partial stakes in some other companies, such as Isuzu.

I think it's in the same boat as Isuzu.. GM has controlling share.

^^^ 20% isn't a controling share...i worked for American Suzuki. But Since GM doesn't know what to do with Daewoo in the U.S. they basically handed them to Suzuki. GM wholy owns Daewoo so i guess in a sense Suzuki is in essence by the balls from GM.

Gm sells it's Daewoos in Canada as Chevys.

And it's not Subaru Heavy Industries, it's Fuji Heavy Industries, which own's Subaru.
