The owner could just go on ebay and purchase the proper centre console from a parts breaker yard here in Aus, that would be much cheaper..

As an Aussie who is an avid Holden lover I have to say the Chevy Caprice PPV is a very different car to what we get in Aus. Firstly if you want to see the Aussie version google VE Holden Caprice. The Caprice PPV was based on the VE Commodore Series 2 the Series 1 Commodore was exported to the US as the G8. That interior in the PPV is taken straight out of the base model Commodore which is called the Omega, the engine is from a higher spec performance model most commonly the SS but here we call the engine AFM which stands for Active Fuel Management (Built in Port Melbourne in Victoria in the same place they build the V6 engines and then installed into the body during assembly in Elizabeth, South Australia). That front bumper is also straight off an Omega however all the parts on the body that usually have chrome have been blacked out. The factory Caprice has much more chrome on the body and bumpers with the addition of fog lights. The Caprice in Aus is a luxury vehicle over here you get the option for V8 or V6 and full leather interior including upgraded Bose sound system and full touch screen integration (available on all models however GPS and Maps are optional on Omega and Berlina) Privacy windows anda whole long list of extras for comfort. Basically the Caprice PPV in America has the interior of the Poverty/fleet spec Commodore and the Body of the luxury up spec car. I hope this helped anyone who was curious.

I come back to this video a lot more than I should but after owning 2 of these and one being bone stock and the other being a setup drag car. I wanna say they’re an awesome platform. I’ve had nothing but fun with these cars. They provide a lot of unique stuff with the ability to purchase true holden parts and get the feel of being JDM almost. They’re super easy to make fast and take a beating. The parts aren’t as hard to get as some may believe. All drive train is carried from a standard LS so it can be found anywhere oarts for a 5.3 can be. Same with the transmission. The rear ends are shared bewteen a Chevy ss and a camaro as well as G8 so you can find them pretty easily. Here and there parts are what I’ve found to be weird. I broke a stud off of the front hub and had to wait a few days for a new stud to come back in. Other than that you can pick these cars up for 6-10k depending what you want. Would recommend it to anyone who wants a fun car that fits all of your friends

It's really a Holden Caprice/Statesman that's been completely stripped out. In Australia, the Caprice is the top of the line model which now has the same interior as the VF Commodore or Chevrolet SS. Leather seats, swade dash, Bose audio, heads up display etc... The big difference between this and a Pontiac G8 (VE) and Chevrolet SS (VF) is that it is Long Wheel Base, the rear doors are far bigger. The Caprice also has its own chassis code being WM from 2006 to 2013 and the updated models being WN. Statesmen were discontinued for the WN update and instead they sold a Caprice and Caprice V. The interior of these PPV's are also unique they have a VE series 2 dash with Holden IQ but the same as the base model rather than what is used in the standard Statesmen/Caprice where the trim flows into the speedometer and the plastic trim around the audio system is separated from the air vents.

I used to work at a place that built patrol cars (radios, lights, sirens, etc...) And we had to go pick up 8 of these at a dealership 2 hours away and bring them to our shop. man they are absolute rockets, and for a police vehicle, they handle unbelievably well. I wouldn't want to be stuck in one putting around city streets at 35 because they ride pretty rough, but if I was a trooper out on the highway all day, I'd take one in a heartbeat.

Yep. This a long wheelbase sedan, V8 version of what was the standard taxi/fleet/cop car. We could get LS3s, L77, and a couple of locally built V6s. Pickup bodies, short wheelbase sedans and also a station wagon. Production finished in October 2017, and that was the end of our car industry.

SolaceRapier Using an SUV as a PPV is completely stupid to me. If you are in pursuit with someone, how would you feel lumbering down a street weaving through traffic with a Chevy Tahoe or Ford Explorer. they're not even good for paddy wagons... Too big for a PPV but too small for a paddy wagon.
@theColeHardTruth7 жыл бұрын
They CAN be. You can get a Ford Police Interceptor Sedan (Otherwise known as a Taurus) with the base 2.0 Ecoboost I4. But it can be optioned to have the same 3.7 V6 from the Mustang or an upgraded version of the 3.5 Ecoboost V6 from the SHO (which allegedly now makes 385hp over the SHO's 365). Basically it's a base Taurus that can have a higher power SHO engine. No wonder it's the fastest police vehicle!
