2002 caprice

[GMH454]

Speaking of rear wheel drive V-8s in our latest issue of Wheels they did their annual test of new cars for speed, both 1/4 and flat out.
One of the stand out performers was GMH's new SV8, a stripped down LS1 four door Commodore with 17x8, spoilers and not much in creature comforts (ie no leather , sports seats , etc )
Ran a respectable 14.1? ( did'nt use a strip so no rubber to help the lauch ) but a very nice 164+MPH top end in the flat out test.
The price , under US$25,000. or about $5,000 more than a V6 Camry here.
Those LS1's are being put to good use.
