GM Australia Holden has a sporty version of the Commodore line, the VXR8, pretty much the same as was sold under the GTO name in the US.

Holden also has a special verions of that, the Holden VXR8 Bathurst edition, supercharged LS3 with 560Hp and torque like a tugboat.

TopGear ran it and were in total love with the car. They sell it in Britain under the Vauxhall brand, I wish they sold it with Opel badges for the rest of Europe and with the steering wheel on the left side.
