I sincerely apologise for the lack of pictures, however operating a camera while driving would be illegal.

Tonight: Saw one of those old Nissan Pulsars from the 80's. You know, the kind that were also badged as Holden Astras. This one had a PULSAR badge on one side of the tailgate, a NISSAN on the other - so was definitely a Pulsar, but had a big Chev sticker in the middle of the tailgate between the badges.

Yes, very nicely done. Not!

^^Speaking of rebadged cars (also without a photo) I saw a Holden Apollo the other day. For those who don't know what an Apollo is, it is a rebadged Camry. Anyway, they had put a big sticker across the top of their windscreen with "HOLDEN" on it

I've seen a VS Lexcen with Chev badges. It's funny that it's a Holden rebadged as a Toyota rebadged as a Chev

That would be hell to get in and out of. You'd never complain about ingress/egress on an AU-BA-BF again

Look at the size of the opening compared to the Murcielago.

The title says "TURBO Commodore."
But in the description it says it needs an engine.... so it currently has a turbo under the bonnet but no engine???? LOL
