2009 Holden Commodore VE GTS. Now available for sale at Muscle Car Warehouse is this 2009 Holden VE GTS Commodore. Released in September 2009, the E Series 2 HSV GTS incorporated a more powerful motor and drivetrain than other HSV models. It retained the same GM LS3 6.2L V8 engine but while the rest of the HSV range still have 317 kW or 425 bhp, the GTS engine was rated at 325 kW. The GTS is finished in contrasting Poison Ivy Green. The odometer is reading approximately 124,000 kilometres but overall, the car presents nicely with only some wear and tear to the front area of the car due to some country driving. This GTS has no modifications and still retains its original logbook, and the build number is #0220. Backing up the 325kw V8 engine is the optional automatic transmission which makes driving this GTS a breeze. This GTS along with plenty of other classic and muscle cars now available for inspection by appointment only at our Kogarah facility.
The Gen-F series, which is based on the VF Commodore series went on sale in August 2013.The Gen-F GTS features a 6.2 supercharged LSA V8 engine which provides 430 kW of power and 740Nm of torque. To assist with its cooling requirements, the GTS is fitted with a stacked plate engine oil cooler and a stand-alone water-to-air charge-air cooling system. Unique tail shafts cater for the higher torque loads and the rear differential helps transfer all of the power to ground. At the time of its release and still to date, the GTS was the most powerful car ever produced in Australia. Like the ClubSport, the GTS is available in both a six-speed manual and a six-speed automatic transmission and it also features 20-inch alloy wheels. Due to the increase in power the GTS has a larger brake package than the ClubSport, also for the sportier look a larger rear spoiler. The GTS is also equipped with generation 3 magnetic ride control or MRC. There are three modes for the MRC, tour, sport/performance and track. The GTS is equipped with a driver preference dial that has four modes to adjust the bi-model exhaust and MRC, these are Tour, Sport, Performance, Track.
Muscle Car Warehouse offers to you this excellent example of the VF GTS model. Originally built in June of 2016 and sparingly used since by its one fastidious owner. Having only travelled just over 10,600 kilometres since new and yet to have its first service completed. From front to back the car is in exceptional condition just as you would expect from a car that has travelled this amount of kilometres. The Prussian Steel paint work compliments the lines of this car perfectly and again, is in excellent condition. All the original wheels and tyres are also unmarked. Powering this beast is the Gen-F 6.2 litre supercharged LSA putting out a healthy 430kw. The GTS is fitted with a 6-speed automatic transmission for added ease when driving. Inside has all the standard features a GTS would have including the beautiful leather seats. As you can tell this car has been very well cared for. Naturally, the GTS still retains its logbook, owner’s manual, associated paperwork as well as the gifts that were exclusively gifted to all HSV owners for every year of their first three years of ownership. This beautiful GTS is now available by appointment at our Kogarah facility.
When released the all new Holden Commodore VT Series 1 (1997 – 1999), budget time and emission restrictions would mean that we would see development cease on the locally built Holden V8 and it would be the last time in history that we would see a local built Holden / HSV powered vehicle. When released in 1997 the HSV VT GTS Series 1 was ahead of it’s time and offered unrivalled performance across Australia and 99% of performance sedans of the world, Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson stated the VT GTS Series 1 as almost being a twin to the Austin Martin Vantage and a reminder of the Lotus Carlton. But Most importantly, it is the LAST of the true Aussie Built HSV muscle cars. Sure, the Series 2 and later model LS engines produce more power; but you just can’t deny that the Holden motor is one of the sweetest things you will ever hear and not many can beat the sound of that Lion-Hearted, Aussie Built Holden Stroker. Does it get any better?! This would have to be top of the ladder as far as the VT HSV range goes. From its vibrant Sting Red paintwork to the optional Pewter coloured leather interior this VT GTS ticks all the boxes. Adding to the desirability is the ever so popular electric sunroof. Power is supplied by the 5.7 later stroker engine (producing 220KW) available in the GTS model and backed by a 6-speed manual transmission. The build number on this GTS is #294 of 399 units released. Of them, 263 were fitted with the M34 code manual transmission. The only modifications to this GTS is an upgraded “SS Inductions” branded airbox (original one included, see pictures) and an immobiliser. Sounds as good as it looks!! It also still retains its original logbooks and owners manual. So if you want a little bit old school Aussie V8 power mixed with new school HSV comfort and collectability contact Muscle Car Warehouse today to arrange a video inspection.
