Driver TBA should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Sounds like someone at GM has done the numbers during development. Cost, power, economy and reliability verses the current V8 obviously didn't stack up well.

888 probably aren't too happy about this. Given it was supposed to be another source of income for the team.

According to a dealer employee. Just under 1000 Commodores were sold last month. 50% being runout VF's.
Majority of the ZB's sold were fleet with preexisting Holden agreements.
