Nope they have to be shipped and converted to right hand drive.

Conversion will run you about 30 to 40 grand depending on model.

 

Yikes, I like the SSS but not THAT much, you really gonna pay that much for one and the conversion?

Thanks,

Moved here because my wife is from Perth. She went to the states on vacation and we met and the rest is history. That was 10 years ago too

 

Huh, well that's cool, Australia must be treating you pretty well. thumbsup.gif

Congrats on the new baby. Damn 53k for a stock super sport? I wouldn't be able to do that it's a lit of money. Why dose it cost some much to get it right hand drive? Hell I'll sell you mine for 40k. :jester:

Thanks for the congrats.Soo looking forward to meeting her.

 

Cost so much because of all the rules and regs here. So it has become a bit of a specialist field here. i mean a freakin camaro SS here is about $120 g's here for a car thats at best 44k.

They make it hard to import to keep jobs here which is cool but sucks cuz cars here are ****in exspensive.

make it 25k i just might =)

Your rides are Awesome. Cars are so much cooler in Down Under. Your HSV avalanche is Awesome.

 

The HSV Maloo is one of my dream cars

 

Dan,

Thanks. Love the HSV just the bed isnt big enough for my taste.

Maloos are sweet if your single...lol

They handle really well.

Yeah i know what you mean. Sometimes the 6 1/2 foot bed on my SS is not long enough. I cant imagine the super short bed on the Ute.

 

To me the Ute is more like a sports car than a truck, but if i lived in Australia I think i would have one.

 

My Dad has been to Australia many times, and most of the time when he is there he rents a Commodore, its just the V6 version but he loves it. Last time he was over there he drove a Ute SS V series and fell in love. If they ever bring it to the US i think my dad would snatch it up in a second.
