Special 20th Anniversary HSV Clubsport R8 Revealed In Sydney


Holden’s special vehicle department (HSV for short) is celebrating its 20th birthday at the Australian International Motor Show in Sydney today with the unveiling of the commemorative ClubSport R8.

HSV’s managing director Scott Grant said the release of a 20th Anniversary ClubSport R8 celebrated the heritage of the luxury and performance car company.

“The birth of HSV and the reveal of the very first VL Group A SS Commodore – commonly referred to as the ‘Walkinshaw’ – took place at the 1987 Sydney Motor Show. From those humble beginnings, HSV has gone on to produce over 55,000 vehicles and dominate the world of Motorsport,” Scott Grant said.

“It is only fitting that today we unveil a limited edition model to commemorate the company’s 20th Anniversary,” he said.

The 20th Anniversary ClubSport R8 goes on sale from October at HSV Dealerships across Australia and is priced from $65,990 AUD or $59,340 USD.
