Exactly, but I do recall an article about it a while ago.
Which is why I don't get why they didn't kill off Commodore.

Even if they want to keep Holden (which I reckon will die off soon enough anyhow), they could have marketed the Insignia as euro luxury to appeal to a new audience. Instead the keep the name with a stigma and alienate pretty much everyone.
