It is said that there are 20-30 going down the line a day, but as of yet, none are for customers, but that a July delivery date is slim but possible.

A Friend from SA called me tonight to tell me that the VE Sportwagon had joined the line and was now in full production, so I guess they should start arriving at dealers for test drives in the next few weeks.

As one sales rep put it, the loyal customers will have to wait till all the dealers have cars to show.

I would have thought as a loyal customer willing to part with over $65K that we would come first, but I guess I was wrong i am not told Aug/Sep.

Wheelnut,

want to tell me how, i have asked for Manual on my last two Calais’s and they say Sorry no way, you cannot even get a Senator in a manual anymore, so the dealers have told me.

I believe that production of the Sportwagon is expected to start sometime in june [within the next couple of weeks] They will create a stockpile of them inorder to meet the initial high demand.. before sending demo models out to dealerships just as they did with the VE sedan

And yes BM you can get a V8 Calais-V Portwagon with 6 Speed Manual

Well Holden have added the final page ( Accessories ), to the Sportwagon micro site.

There is no more marketing to be done now, they just need to start building and delivering the cars.

Duck, dunno about that. But I do reckon it will be the most popular wagon by percentage of build that we’ve seen for a long time.

The new wagon will sell more than the sedan commodore version I reckon! Does anybody else agree?

Duck, Who is “Shaker”. Just telling it as i see it.Most cars on here are just that , a piece of shit but everyone goes on how that the vehicle is just the best thing that has been built. I work on new vehicles all day at a local dealership and once you start to work on them it shows how nasty some of them have been designed and built

I Guess not.

No room for the Catholic Pack.

in fact i am making it clear there is no room for the German Shepherd, too much hair. Thats why we have the VY International. But the wife now says if i have a wagon, she gets a Monaro.
:( not if i have to pay for it!

I got FE2 & LSD, Full Alloy spare, Tint, Steel Cargo Barrier Extended Warrenty 36Months 100,00Km, and Sunroof, but there is no factory sunroof, it is a hollandia, but thats OK i have one in my current Calais, and the advantage with the hollandia is i get to keep the sunglass holder. They also gave me Mats and Paint, Leather & Vinyl Guard protection. Still waiting for a firm delivery date, they say June. same specs generated prices ranging from $65K to $70K, some dealers realised that keeping the cost of the base car below $57,123 saved $2000 in tax.
