XU1`s, SLR`s, or just Toranas in general. VK-VH Brocks, VL`s where and still are a great car, just a shame they are given a bad name by idiots. OLD Monaros, new ones suck. Sandmans, Kingswoods.
I have a big big soft spot for VB-VC commodores especially the brocks. Basiclly any commdore up to VK. Those blue meany VK SS`s are a mean mean machine though.

My favorite Holden was an HK 327 Monaro I bought it in 1975 for $1700 had it 2 years and traded it in on a Valiant wagon thats what kids do to you if I still had it I could add a couple of noughts to the value but we didnt know did we

I dont think anyone can argue that GTR`s and SLRs where just a mean and great looks car, wether you like Holden or not, a 202 that runs a 14.7 is a pretty mean little car, and thats quicker than my XR8!

VX/VY/VZ SS's really do it for me. Also HQ's and VR/VS Clubbies with that roaring 5ltr also take my fancy.
