Holden launched the VT Commodore in 1997, at a similar time to Ford's AU Falcon.
Where the VT Commodore was toned and muscular, the AU was awkward. The VT propelled the Commodore past Falcon in sales, and would not relinquish this lead for the next two decades until both cars ended production.
Part of the VT's portfolio were the SS models, aimed at enthusiasts and fitted with V8 engines. Series I cars used the long-lived 5.0L Holden V8 engine, developed in the late 1960s, and rated at 179 kW / 400Nm. For series II cars, from June 1999 this was replaced with the GM LS3 5.7L engine with 220 kW / 446 Nm.
Shown here is the utility (or 'Ute' in Australia parlance). The Ute configuration was often adopted as the working-man's sportscar, rather than a true load-carrying vehicle. I high proportion of VT utes were V8-equipped SS models riding on large wheels.

We had our yearly office party today at the Commodore in St. Paul. Apparently F. Scott Fitzgerald lived there at one time, or drank there a lot, or something. I LOVE the bar there. In the Rejects set you can see another shot of the other side of the room - red curtains - it's really cool, art deco-y, and reminds me of Oceans 11.
The photo itself, of course, is not that great; it was taken with my phone. I didn't want to bring in my good camera to the party. Hopefully you can still get an idea of how cool the bar is.

Dear to my heart. My first computer was a Commodore 64. A friend of mine got the Amiga 1000, an amazing piece of hardware. Later I upgraded to the Amiga 500.

Pilliner's Bar at the hotel referred to the Pilliner family; when Alfred Massey Pilliner, son of the former managing director of the local Oakfield Wire Works married the daughter of Richard Laybourne, the latter bought Llanyravon Farm for them, and in 1900, had Llanyravon House, a Gothic style mansion built on the Commodore site for the couple.
