once again the aussies prove that they "get it" while the powers that be in Michigan only want to figure how many different slow, heavy, overpriced truck/sport ute configurations they can peddle to the public...

Being the HSV equivalent of the Holden Caprice (top of the line)..

I doubt it would come cheap..

I'd guess around $50-60K USD

yes it is - the donor car (Caprice) has them as standard, so they are carried over into the Grange.

$45-50,000 at current exchange rates.

BTW: To rub salts in the wounds, these donor cars are called Chevrolet Caprices in the middle east.

Grange: A farm, especially the residence and outbuildings of a gentleman farmer.

It's also the name of one of the finest bottles of red wine you can buy
