Only available in LHD curtails its legal usage in most states in Australia. The cost of converting and meeting local compliance would be prohibitive for commercial onward sales. The last I heard was GM have no intentions of offering right hand drive variations. It is not just a matter of changing a steering rack, it involves different firewall, dashboard likely relocation of peripheral engine parts, pedal box plus much more.

For these reasons alone I cant see the financial viability in Holden offering a Camaro for sale in Aus. Preumably the branding might cause issues as well. Chevrolet v Holden. It is more than just changing a badge with international marketing strategies and plans for Holden let alone Chev.
