I’ve watched this video for over 4 years now imagining what it would be like to own a VF2 Redline. After 3 years of P’s I finally picked up my 2016 VF2 SSV Redline manual in the same red colour as the video
Absolutely cheering
Nice one. I just got a 2017 redline sportswagon with cams and OTRAC. Amazing. Best car I've ever driven.
Love the sound at 2:50 it actually roars and sounds just like an old skool V8 should. The car also looks like it's about to pull a wheelie...that is some serious brute force...
2:36 my friend when he heard snags are coming again to Bunnings
It’s comments like these that keep me alive
Johnathan Cruise tell me about it
LOL
Yep, found my new dream car
Null_Ghost why did you sell your lambo ksi
In America its called the chevy ss my aunt has one and its blue and whoo that thing roars
I’m getting it as a first car like once I’m able to get a v8
mine would have to a manual
@@gamerburns1680 Vic is no fun, can’t get any good cars on your p plates
Cannot Wait for mine today. Ive been waiting Years for this. ONE DAY LEFT. IM GETTING MINE TODAY!
As a german, I'm genuinely thinking about importing one. It's a very bad idea, but i absolutely want one.
As a brit, same
Get the bitter vero. It's like a holden statesman I promise you but like a German version
@@paddy.r.l4791then get the vauxhall vxr8 vf gts. It's real expensive though and it isnt a commodore but a better one also known as the hsv gts in Aussie terms
The roar of a Lion, this is the perfection of the V8 Series I have ever heard of.
2:33 handbrake holding up pretty good.
Regular brake release launch
it should be quicker comments lol
Mark Skaife drove a stock auto VFII Redline around the Sydney Motorsport Park GP circuit in 1:49.4. That is astounding for a near 2 tonne auto family car that's less than $60k!
Love the sound when you hit the pedal!
PDriveTV, great video as usual. Please do this again but in manual form!
Long live Holden!🚗💨
This is a Chevy SS with a Holden badge on it my guy
@@peytonmercer2250 the Americans took the Holden and placed their markings on it
Peyton Mercer - No it’s a Holden commodore built in Australia with a Holden badge on it like it should have...
Beast ! Long live Holden
Gee.. How fast is fast guys? Like how much more performance do you expect? I think it's awesome for its asking price. Besides it sounds awesome. I'd love one and how often are you really going to do 0 to 100 launches in daily drives? It's funny how everybody becomes professional race car drivers on CZcams comment sections
Mustang kills it
+elmin2323 mustangs a lighter, 2 door coupe it's a traditional sports car this is a sports sedan. They're different cars. Both are great
its actually not that much lighter, would be 20kilos if that from what i'm reading. Which is quite funny considering the Mustang is a much smaller car with a newer chassis. Goes to show you how heavy that Coyote lump is up front when compared to anything LS based.
elmin2323 besides. Try buying a brand new mustang GT for 60k
TheWretchedWorld yeh people assume the 6.2L is automatically heavier than the coyote 5.0L but it doesn't work that way. Lol the 5.0L is a heavy engine. I guess they're both great engines in their own ways.
Imagine the ls3 revved as high as the coyote! As much as I like both engines I think ls3 has a lot more tuning potentials where as the 5.0L is great from the get go
To my Australian brothers, Thanks for making these great Holden Commodores. Sorry to tell you that all the presses, welding and ancillary machines have now been shipped from your Holden factory in Elizabeth SA to our GM Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly where the new Chevy SS will be built in 2021 with a minor cosmetic makeover from the 2017 model which was built in Australia. In years to come it is possible that these amazing cars will be exported back to Australia from the USA. How mixed up is this? I have driven the Chevy SS and I believe it to be the best 4 door car ever built in the world with its 415hp LS3 V8. Take care.., David Matherson
@Aidan Lynch Sorry sir. It will have Chevy SS Badges both inside and out. This is because GMH will not be building the car in Australia and we have learn't from the failed German made Commodore not to re-badge a foreign made import and ship it to Australia as a Commodore. Have a great day!
I take it you haven't driven an RS6?
How do you know this ???
I just saw one parked right now at the 99 cent store. I must say it’s an eye catcher if you see one up close. And in the exact orange red color.
2:11 *N U T*
Ewwww no its actual 💩
@@HaultRxst Lol. So it seems you aren't a fan of Holden. Why are you even here?
@@HaultRxst WE FOUND A FORD FANBOY!!
@@VZBOYY Lol
in real world driving the top end on this car is real good, say overtaking 80 to 150kph then brake hard down to 100kph before you hit the sharp bend ahead of you on a steep hill. Most cars run out of puff doing this. Off the line is fast if you take off traction control, otherwise it reduces power to prevent wheel spin. You do need to know how to drive to do well with this car.
wtf (what) are you on about? LOL
Love my SS..... Black on black,lowered,kicks arse in Competition mode(click traction control off then hold for 10 seconds till ESP Off logo comes up on screen)
Holden were on the right track but got distracted by Europe.Had they used all this power and tech but used the SLR5000,LC GTR XU1 or HG Bathurst GTS Monaro bodyshell they'd still be in business...
Beautiful ride, beautiful sound👍👏👏
It’s like watching Bullit chase scene.
Cheers mate 👌😋
Shivers me @ 2:18
Hey guys can we get a test of the manuals please? ur vf and vf2 and ute are all autos.
Couldnt believe they stopped putting CD players in the VF2
Very few manufacturers add them these days if any. Maybe get with the times and use bluetooth from your phone.
That sound
is there any plans to do a video on the VF II redline similar to the video a few years back where you drove a blue 2012 VE ssv series 2 through the southern highlands in NSW? it was a good video showcasing the VE and the scenery was pretty damn good too.
Wish we these were sold as Holden's in the US.😓
well you8 have the chevy ss which is similar to the vf commodore
I saw one of these today in the states, I'm lucky!
Considering the surface that’s not to bad I’m certain that on a prepped strip you could get around a 4.7 or lower surely with that kinda grunt
It'd be morr than likely be using 95 octane , take a tenth or two of of 0 100 times if using 98 and it would sound even better
Finally the Commodore sounds like a V8!
not as good as the old commodores though and tne new ford xr8 sunds so much better
Tony Bolonyface I agree
+Ash Cosmo the new LSA engine found in the HSV GTS sounds much better, i would know the neighbors have one, and speaking of older commodores the old LS1 5.7 litre engines sounded much better asell
+Ash Cosmo dude read my comment i said the new lsa sound good and then speaking of old engknes the ls1 sounded good
Sounds like a V8? That's because it has a V8 XD
love the sound
Great video. Have mine on order and can't stop watching your video on it 😁
Was this test done on 91 octane. Review says 91 octane. Sure on 98 would be quicker. Can you confirm gas you used
e10
Awesome car !!!
great interior for the money.
Is it though?
I have just noticed that the VF 1 HSV'S sounds totally different to the series 2, even though they both have the same exhaust from the factory ? So either the bi models were not put on or some of the cars tested were not working properly ?
Starts at 2:11
How is it the SSV Redline has the same 0-100 time as the Calais V sportwagon you tested a few weeks ago yet the Calais V Sportwagon weighs in at 1820 and the SSV Redline is 1758? :/
Thanks for the videos, keep them coming............
I bought a Golf R based solely on your review!
+Jo Sioso Thanks for the feedback. Great to hear - superb car!
Beautiful beast. ❤
Manual transmissions are near extinction 🤦🏽♂️😪
its not like 80% of commodores are autos or anything
Who cares about that dinosaur tech.
@@HULKHOGAN1 me
@@HULKHOGAN1 me
Wow I want that LS3 badge up front on my SS anybody know where a yank like me can acquire one?
vincealinceable I'm guessing you're form the states like I am, just hit up the Chevy dealership they will have to order one from Australia. Or check eBay lol
Europe need this car!!!!
They stop making it this year :(
+Roberto Brito Falero You guys have the VXR8 which is the same as our HSV GTS.
+joytech22 I thought they were just stopping the falcon?, or this too?.
Yort Dorbon They'll stop this too in 2017 and then it becomes a wave of chinese/korean vehicles already seen in the US, instead of the Chevrolet badge we'll just have a Holden badge.
Haha, you must be kidding. People in Europe drive mostly BMW/Mercedes and some other luxury German brands, who will get this piece of crap. And also people there prefer 4cyl turbo cars for fuel efficiency purpose, not many people like the V8, the fuel price there is much higher than in Australia.
Shame the NSW police are getting rid of them. Don't get me wrong. The BMW 530d looks great but I'll pass on the Chrysler. Seriously, at least keep a few Commodores...
still yet to hear one get up it in real life, seen a few at the lights and when they take off they are dead silent. Wonder if the bimodal only opens at WOT?
Would be great to see if you could retrofit that sound enhancer pipe from the intake into the older VE series 2 models
+maximumnoise78 I own a VF2 SS manual ute and I can tell you they don't sound like they do in the vid... I dunno what they've done to make it so loud. They pop crackle and fart but they're not a whole lot louder than normal, definitely not to what the hype as made them out to be....
thanks for the reply Nathan!
I've got an SSV Redline, and trust me when I say that it is pretty bloody loud! It's much louder than any other stock car for the money, and it sounds a lot better in person too. Bi-Modal is always on for me, can't turn it off. Sounds too good.
you can close it so maybe they had it of my dad never turns it off
Blom masuk indonesia holden commodore tahun 2016 sampai 2018
Those times seem slow to me, my 2005 sv8 commie with just otr can pull those times and that's with just a ls1 under the hood! Being a lighter car a maybe?
Andrew Osborne dream mate
my dream car
Waiting for the "Muh my supra can beet this lol"
Uncle Swag / DEADdem camry is more the SS's rival. Stock 20year old supra would walk this.
who cares ,they're all quick cars ,i bet you're Supra doesn't sound anyway near as nice at low revs,where we mostly drive these things.i can run 3 grand gear changes in my ss ,and its so fucking enjoyable,how about you?
a stockish 2j actually burbles and crackles and has that deep bassy straight 6 note. Both sound hella good
Uncle Swag / DEADdem SUPRA fkin smoke this SHIT!!!!
Found the Supra fanboy that watches too much Fast & Furious
is that an after market exhaust? doesn't sound like the stock bi-modal from the factory.
Ryan Piner, I think so. I have after market exhausts and it sounds just like mine.
Standard exhaust
I want one of these in the US, just like this but only in Black!
You can buy these in the US they are called a Chevy SS
Does any know a good website I could purchase an earlier 2000 commodore, monaro? Would like to purchase one to have shipped to the us.
What inch pipes are on this car???
Bit dissapointed with the 0-100 times. Guess the manual is quicker then :S
+ReaLzEdits Manual would be a lot quicker :)
yeah manual would be since holden/chev cant deskgn a bloody automatic gearbos
Tony Bolonyface Their not bad, but by no means anything "sporty" xD
You want something quicker buy a hsv . And pay 30 k
more for it
Ben Chesterman Or a simple tune on gearbox and engine that will keep up with an HSV for about 28-29 thousand dollars less.
4:10 what is the orange light on right hand side of TRACTION OFF?? This car is AUTO?? I tried to get this light today yet NO GO??
Took a bloke for a drive today, giving it a bit through some nice turns,,,,,he says, gees back off a bit those sandstone walls are hard.....I backed off to about 80km/hr through some bends that most bikes go round under 80km/h... OK I was averaging 100km/h.......
I go around this sweeping left, rises a little over crest then sweeping falling right, he says......
......"Whats that extra boost?"............ "It's my right foot!!" I said.
It’s stability control off.
Press the traction control button quickly two times and it’ll go into competitive mode, which is basically the track mode where the computers don’t interfere at all
Thanks mate...Had to recap what I asked...
So mine is 2016 VF2 Redline AUTO....NOT 2017 with magride.
What you're telling me will work in mine?
Tap twice?? I will try that.
Hello - yeah did the double tap, although I only get the stability icon not two (traction stability) like your car? Thanks for the info mate.
fu$$$$k that sound! worth every penny
my family owns one
Why we didn’t get this car
I have a white one with black red line rims, auto, 30ks on the clock for $43,000.
Its funny how the most kickass American cars are made in Australia. Wish the Pontiac G8 and Chevy SS took off here.
Idiotic public has spoken with every manufacturer scrambling to rush out crappy handling SUV’s with ananemic engines or stupid utes with tacky body kits and names. I’d own one of these anyday over a RAV4 or some other rubbish.
The black one is the car. To drive. Wow the drive is to turn in and sky sun sets
Does anyone know if getting a used one these days is pretty expensive or not? In terms of getting new parts etc
Just dropped 55K on a used one
So this is slower than the calais v wagon you tested a little while back? Pulled 5.2 0-100 in the wagon.
+Johnny Anogianakis Very similar time. The Calais achieved a best of 5.22 with our old one decimal point timing. Calais uses narrower tyres (245 vs 275) which actually help get it off the line in auto form thanks to slight wheelspin. Manual would be a different story.
How about the new Clubsport R8 LSA?
Just bought one :o)
So that makes the Calais a sleeper. Discreet looking, but very fast. Too bad the Calais doesn't have a limited slip diff.
May I have the music track name please?
I couldn’t imagine shifting with my left hand
You get use to it. I've driven on both sides and you will be surprised how quickly it becomes natural. When I drove in europe for 1 month, at first it was weird shifting with my right hand but by the time I got back to AUS it felt weird shifting with my left hand. It's just like anything you will adapt and it will feel completely natural before you can blink an eye.
2:46 pops and cracks 😍
what exhaust it has?
That would be the stock bimodal system
Video starts at 2:06
2:49, Birds are chirping, wind is blowing, and the car is roaring. Wait what?
How is this not a hsv
hsv club sports or gts are a bit more faster because more kw
this is hardly any quicker than the normal 6 litre ss? surely not
270 vs 304 is a decent hit plus differential change
Boy this sounds good
MAŞHALLAHH
what km to a tank dose this get ?
+Public Safety Lights Australia I would think 450-500 around town. and 600-700 on highway.
Around town I get about 420 and thats with out sinking your boot into it. and country around the 500 for me again thats not going hard :(
my old ls1 did 6.0 to 100km/h , anything over 5sec is considerd slow these days
Nice car
My vz r8 done 0-100 4.9 and 13.3 400m 105mph
mel hillmer so? This car is better than a VZ in every other respect imaginable
Im torn between auto or manual. I have heard the auto is actually pretty good.
dont get an automatic. Doesnt sound as good
+TheJimmy1990 nice. So why did you buy two?
In 50 years time when the car becomes a classic, manuals will be more rare and probably worth more. Notice how people never buy 70's muscle cars which are automatic? Its frowned upon.
Get the auto. Think about the resale value.
Car enthusiasts prefer manuals. Will be so easy to sell in the future if you ever choose to do so, and some will even pay extra simply because its a manual. People like to get the revs up
Nice car...too bad for the company extinction
I want a holden now but I'm in the us
shopping song!,😍😱😂😂😂
to have and keep
Is that stock sound??
Yep
can anyone tell me how much HP this thing has?
430
304kw or 408bhp
450 not that bad for a family car
415 in US but it's underrated. About 370 crank hp on average. Cheap mods get you over 400 wheel hp easy. LSA blower gets you over 500 easily on low boost. These are real gems....sleepers. And they eat hemi's lol
Классный тач
this is why I bought the manual. Auto just sounds wrong changing gears.
Auto sounds alright in my opinion.
@@GokantheHusky auto aint real driving man, you get an amazing connection with the car when youre able to shift gears, nothing can beat it
@@OGtrushalpatel Have to disagree with you. Auto sounds better than manual in this case. I cant drive stick so if I ever get a car like this, it is gonna be an auto.
@@GokantheHusky looool you cant drive stick? Thats your excuse for supporting autos? Dude trust me, learn to drive manual and you'll understand why we love manuals so much. But its totally your choice, you can stick to auto if you'd like but id HIGHLY recommend you learn manual. You wont regret it
@@GokantheHusky woahh come on now i didnt mean to start a fight. I dont understand how you can be interested in cars but not be able to drive manual. Its like being into video games but not owning a console or pc lol
is that stock exhaust

Farq the Google thingy
The depreciation is so rapid you can hear the dollar coins fall out the exhaust...imagine if fuel spikes again. Couldn't give one away.
Shows how much you know 😅
