Why I Bought a 10 Year Old Holden V8 in 2026

Did Holden save the best 'til last? Ten years on, I'm taking another look at my 2016 VF Series II Holden Commodore SSV Redline Sportwagon. With its naturally aspirated 6.2L LS3 V8, rear-wheel drive and unmistakable character, is the VF Redline still as special in 2026 as it was when it was new? In this episode, I share my thoughts on the car, why this car, performance and what it's actually like to drive today. It's not all perfect, and I even find myself comparing it to my Toyota RAV4 Hybrid! This is also the last look at my Redline in completely stock form before we start making some modifications and finding out just how much more fun we can have. *Fast Is Fun isn't just about horsepower or speed. It's about the feeling, the experiences and the people who share the passion.* If you enjoy cars, motorsport, real-world builds and the stories behind them, come along for the journey. Because Fast Is Fun, right? 🏁 #FastIsFun #HoldenCommodore #VFRedline #LS3 #SSVRedline
