Seems ZBs have been out long enough to start hitting the auctions - this one comes with added extras you don't usually get:

Case in point - Dealer 1 had a Blue Manual - August Build with the spec I wanted. They knew I was serious and was ready to sign a deal. With a straight face they wanted me to pay $10k over the odd's because "they are the last one's". Sales manager was a money grabbing douche. I told them to stick it and walked away. They had plenty of unsold stock Dealer 2 had a Manual - Again, Spec I wanted but July Build and Gold. They where willing to talk turkey and actually started at Retail (which I was expecting) and I managed to get a good discount (thousands) including Mat's, full tank, etc. Was a fair price so I bought it their and then. Dealer 1 - Called me in February to see if I was still looking and interested. They still had heaps (and they still had the one I was going to buy) I checked not to long ago and they still had some left Dealer 2 - Had sold all their stock (including the HSV's) before end of Last year Yet another act of stupidity from some Holden Dealers...

Momentous day .. Finally laid eyes on a ZB Commodore ..other than supercars and videos I hadn't seen a single on in the metal until today .
Was just about to get in my car at the servo after topping up the XR6 for the weekend when a bright red one passed slowly by me heading coast direction . In the few seconds I got a look , it seemed pretty nice ..Didn't mind it at all . Next trick is to get a proper look or even talk with someone that owns one . At least I can say I've seen one now after all this time ...Woo Hoo.. |

According to our local rag, VF been recalled, apparently with a steering issue. Problem is, there are no spare parts. Fancy having your new pride and joy stuck on blocks due to no parts.
