My dad drove a V8 VS Caprice for a year or two. We drove it from Melb to the Gold Coast in 1997. It had a headphone jack for each rear passenger near the headrest and I think maybe a separate radio tuner for each (can't remember). Pretty sure they were Holden headphones that came with the car. That was pretty crazy for back then. Dad would tell us off for playing with the roof control box haha.
I remember working on some of these whilst doing my apprenticeship and a little after being qualified. When you’re 17/18 years old, these S/C V6’s are absolutely bonkers! I could never afford one, so I got a VL Calais Turbo instead. 🙂 great to see these all these iconic cars!
Very nice VS Caprice! My favourite HSV VT wheels. I have the same set of wheels in shadow chrome on my HSV VT CLUBSPORT 5L. Supercharged V6 sound really good with a twin system exhaust.
Ahhh no, definitely not. There's already a bad enough stigma with the car with wankers, just having the stutututu crowd relegated with the shitbox VL only is enough 🤣
In 1998 I did my work experience at a Holden dealership, and remember going for a test drive after a service with the supercharged caprice series 3.

Awesome review. Bring back memories of growing up in the back of a DC LTD.
2:30 just have a look at a 1992 Oldsmobile cutlass supreme rear end, they are near identical with the VS Statesman/ caprice.

The statesman and especially the Caprice were designed and made for the rear passengers.
It's still a VS steering wheel with a VT/WH airbag.
Even the 1990 VQ has those 3 screens from the trip computer.😂
As I remember it in my VS caprice the backseats were good for some shenanigans due to the extra legroom 🤪 I miss that car
I miss my VS Series 3 HSV Enhanved Caprice, If you wern't comfortable in the back seats, you wern't human!
Beautiful is it champagne gold and they looked like cv8 wheel ive got the for my vr calais
L67 was an option on the vs series 2 calais and quite rare.
Such a shame that we don’t make cars in Australia anymore.
We used to make pretty darn good ones. Everything nowadays is just so boring.
Do a manual conversion series
How insanely good would it have been if VN-VS all had RB engines!

@MitchZero9 It would be sutututu heaven! 🤣
