HSV GTS 300

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Holden Special Vehicles (HSV) GTS 300 is a motor vehicle which is no longer under production.

The GTS 300, named so because its engine's output was 300 kW (402 bhp) was available in both Coupe and Commodore (sedan) bases. It is powered by a 5.7-litre Callaway-tuned C4B engine, based on the Chevrolet LS1 V8. Until recently it was the most powerful Australian made production car and a true collectors item. The GTS came with a Tremec T-56 six speed manual transmission only when it was released in 1999 and became one of the fastest sedans in the world (if not the fastest). It was outdone in 2002 with the release of supercharged V8 Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG.
