Again I say, "Excuse me, but is that an Impala badge on the rear deck of the Caprice SS?"

I dont think this is the impalla emblem on the deck lid. I think its the Holden Lion from the Holden Caprice. Click on the link and go to pic 2 That, and it still says Caprice across the deck lid. I think its just the Holden Caprice rather than the Chevy Caprice.

You need an eye exam!

Ask yourself this, "why would a Chevy have a Holden emblem?"

Its an Impala, trust me.

Because I think that particular shot is of a Holden and not a Chevy at all. Its the exact same shot as on the Holden site. It was released as the Holden Caprice, the same time the Holden Commodore was released. Why would the car have an impalla emblem and say Caprice? I think its possible that particular shot is of the wrong car. look at pic 2 of the gallery of Caprice, on the Holden site then tell see what you think.

It looks like an Impala to me.



Here's the Holden:


Definitely a Photochop, but definitely not the same badge.

It definitely says "CAPRICE", however they photoshopped in the Impala badge and a rear spoiler.

try to remember, its a Holden car first like the Commodore or Monaro. Hopefully Caprice and Commodore will come soon.

I dont know what else to say. The emblem is too blurry to be definitive, but I think the deck lid definately says Caprice and so does the tag. Also its the same pic as on Holden site like I said. I guess the impalla emblem could have been photoshopped on, but Ive never heard of an Caprice Impalla...
