Chevrolet Lumina UTE SS aka Holden Commodore UTE

[r0bb86]

A buddy of mine from Windhoek, Namibia just got one of these.
He was asking if I could get him Lumina parts. I was like :thinking:
Didn't quite understand why he'd want to mod a Chevrolet Lumina.. until I saw the pictures.

Chevrolet Lumina UTE SS
6.0 V8, 270 kW 530Nm torque

New the car sells for N$406,000 (~US$52,000)

I had no idea they were selling these over there. They have normal Sedan (our G8) as well.
Due to gas prices there are very few V8's in South Africa/Namibia.
The majority of the vehicles there are 1.0-1.4l's and a 2.0l is considered a sports car.

Not a fan of the wheels, the rest is good.

^ totally agree. they tend to follow euro styling, thus the wheels.
i was actually suprised to not see clear "euro" tails, lol.

that was going to be a us model but they cut that idea before production started and the recession hit

[Evil Goat]

the gto's were marketed as lumina ss' in some places as well.

[Doppelgänger]

If GM had been smart, they would have brought the UTE here a long time ago....
