Near and dear to my heart. Looks like the Aussies are giving up the Holden
platform to be used as the new Chevy Caprice cop car. 6.0 liter engine,
0-60 in 4 sec.
Thanks Rob, we haven't had a decent cop car (patrol unit) since the demise
of the Chevy Caprice with the LT1 engines.

Do you mean "goes like an Oldsmobile? (Rocket V8 -- sort of GMC content.)

Steve,

The difference between Aussie autos and Yank tanks is unbelievable! The suspension is WAY firmer and they go "like a shower of
s#1t!"

Ford is now marketing a Focus that parks itself to help the "ladies".

I'm gonna catch hell for that one probably!

Regards,
Rob M.
