I drove an omega fleet car through my work.
What an absolute waste of sheet metal. Horrendous pile of engineering vomit.
Shame on you Holden.

Why not buy an RX or a Corolla? I’ll tell you why, because they’re completely different cars. If you’re going to do comparrisons on vehicles regarding which to buy, at least stick to using other family size cars to be the variable.

Last time I’ll rely on this site for any kind of review.

Hi – very good info on the VE, but can you pls correct the references to “VZ” – I think they are just an oversight, but the blog says things like “Yes, the Holden Commodore VZ comes standard without Aircon.”
and
“Holden claims that the new VZ model is better value for money”…..I think you meant to say VE in those places.

Otherwise very informative and I appreciated the highlights about the dumb marketing things about spare tyres & air-con !! What a marketing “duh”.
cheers,
Don

[...] Now you might be thinking, aw thats alright, its just the SS and SS V with their 18 and 19 inch mags (or the optional 20 inch mags which cost ~$1000 each), but even the base model Holden VE Commodore Omega, which runs on 225/60 R16 98V tyres is going to cost you around $230/tyre for replacements. Hmmm not much of a cheap car for Australian families ha? [...]
