I was on the holden web site looking for gas model Commodores. Can't find any? Is this because there isn't one?

2 immediate questions here.
1) Why are you looking at Holdens? 2) Why are you looking at LPG powered Holdens?  :

I'm pretty sure holden don't make LPG Commodores.

They do have an LPG model for the Executive, its over $4000 extra. 3 times as much as the Ford E Gas.

you could purchase factory gas back in the VR commodore days. I also think it was an option for VS and VT however it came under the HOLDEN BY DESIGN or HBD which was their fancy name for bonnet protectors, alloy wheels and gas systems. These were all Dual Fuel systems though, not dedicated gas
The biggest problem they had was blowing up the airbox, which i know early fords had similar issues. hope that helps |

If forced to decide, I would rather a dual fuel Commie, than a gas-dedicated Falcon. But I don't think we'll go there.................
