Australia's high-performance car manufacturer Holden Special Vehicles (HSV) continues the yearlong festivities for its 25th anniversary with the presentation of a special edition version of the GTS ahead of a world premiere at the 2012 Sydney auto show later in October."From day one, our mission at HSV has been to build Australia's finest performance cars. Every year, for the past 25, we have refined and evolved on what has gone before. And now, we present the newest HSV flag bearer – our 25th Anniversary GTS," said Holden's subsidiary in a statement.
In essence, the new 25th Anniversary GTS is a cosmetic and equipment package as there's no extraoomph for the special edition, which keeps the regular model's 6.2-litre V8 LS3 engine with 436Hp (325kW) and 550Nm (405.6 lb-ft).The 25th Anniversary package brings a new set of 20-inch forged alloy wheel in Satin Graphite that are claimed to deliver a weight saving in excess of 22kg (49 pounds) over the standard GTS wheel set, reducing unsprung weight by 8 per cent.
The "vector" hood scoops, side vents and grille of the special edition model are painted in Satin Graphite, while it also gets special badges on the outside, and stitched seats with an embroidered logo and a plaque on the center stack inside.
Other standard features include an upgraded 6 Piston Brake Package, Rear Park Assist with Reverse camera and a Side Blind Zone Alert system.
Production of the Commodore-based 25th Anniversary GTS is limited to 140 vehicles, including 125 for Australia and 15 for New Zealand, with each car individually numbered.
In Australia, prices start at AU$84,990 for the six-speed manual model and AU$86,990 for the 6sp automatic.
