Looks the business—but isn’t

nobody@vox.com(Jack Yan) — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 04:28:16 -0800

Holden Commodore SV6

On the trip where I had to delay returning a rental car for a day, it had to be the most expensive, full-size model, didn’t it?
   This Holden Commodore SV6 is about as well equipped as a 1989 Opel inside (the electric windows did not even have a one-flick close—you had to keep your finger on the button; and the windscreen wipers would not go from one-speed to intermittent when the car was stationary), but boy, did it turn heads. More people looked at this than some of the very exclusive cars I have driven. It’s not sporty, with no flappy gear change, and a pretty limited five-speed automatic gearbox.
   The one good point: it had room galore.
   I have no idea why they sell so well, but then, there’s no accounting for taste. By the same token the Toyota Auris and Corolla are best sellers here, and they are about as entertaining as an episode of Coronation Street without sound. And picture.
