Nīnau ʻia inā pono e hana hou ʻo GMSV e lanakila i ka hilinaʻi o ka poʻe kūʻai kūloko ma hope o ka emi wikiwiki ʻana a me ka pani ʻana o Holden, manaʻoʻiʻo ʻo GMSV Australia a me New Zealand director Joanne Stogiannis ua mākaukau ka hapa nui o nā mea kūʻai aku e apo i ka wā e hiki mai ana, ʻoiai ka poʻe e hoʻomau nei i ka huhū ma GM .

Kiʻi hoʻolaha o Holden Sandman mai ka makahiki 1970. Kiʻi: Hoʻopili ʻia.

"Ua hana wau no Holden i koʻu ola a pau a noʻu he aloha a mahalo i ka brand e hoʻomau nei a hiki i kēia lā," wahi āna.

"He nui nā mea kūʻai aku a mākou e kākoʻo nei i ka aftermarket - 1.6 miliona mau ʻauwaʻa no laila aia kahi brand e pono ai mākou e kākoʻo - a mai kahi aʻu e noho nei a holo i kēia brand GM hou, ʻo mākou." ka hoʻokipa i loaʻa iā mākou mai nā mea kūʻai mai.

“ʻAe, aia kekahi poʻe e huhū a huhū. ʻAʻole wau kānalua. Akā ʻo ka poʻe makemake i Corvette a i ʻole kaʻa kaʻa, hauʻoli loa i kā mākou hana. "

ʻOiai ma hope o ka holomua o ka makahiki mua ma Australia, mahalo ʻia i ʻoi aku ma mua o 2000 piha piha i ka Silverado hoʻopaʻa inoa mai ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka makahiki, ua ʻae ʻo Ms Stogiannis ua lilo ka heihei ʻo Bathurst i kahi hōʻike litmus no GMSV no ka mea he wahi laʻa ia. no ka poʻe paʻakikī paʻakikī. Holden.

"ʻOiai mākou i Bathurst, e ʻike wale ana i ka hopena [i ka laina kaʻa Chevrolet Corvette a me Silverado], ua neʻe ka poʻe… i kahi liʻiliʻi," i ʻōlelo ai ʻo ia, "akā e mau ana kekahi pilikia.

No laila, ua maopopo ka hoʻihoʻi ʻana i nā ʻauwaʻa hoʻoilina Holden he hoʻomaka maikaʻi ia e hoʻopili ai i ka wā i hala me ka wā e hiki mai ana.

E hoʻomau no ka ʻike hou aku i ka wā e loaʻa ai.
