The Holden driver was changing gears painfully slow to me, you can hear the revs fall off at each gear change and he seemed to be off the throttle too long in both cars. The Holden sounds much more to my liking.
djp4nfa commodore interior is worst looks old and tacky with cheap materials. The Mustang interior while it's not premium it has better design a mix of retro and modern look with better looking quality materials. Just look at the dials in person it looks way better in the day time when it lit up and looks even better at night.
Holden would have a R&D department maybe a tenth the size of what created the Mustang, has a higher CoG, heavier, less power, and to be about 1 second off the Mustang around Sandown, I'd say it did OK 🙄
I don’t care how it sounds what’s the reliability and pros and cons I already know you basically have to rebuild the gear box on the mustang as soon as you buy it
That's actually quite incorrect. The issues with the ss are timing chain, lifters and oil pump, poor brakes, front radius arm bushes and shit clutch. Mustang is oil pump, oil cooler which ford is covering, shit clutch, and gearbox eventually. Any cars going to have its side issues, regardless of brand. But it's the potential that people need to look at. The GEN 2 coyote is a monster that with the right mods can do an easy 450 to 500whp and still be very easy to drive, and the stock engine once the oil pump is taken care of can do 1000hp, and 8000rpm, no issues.
The holden Commodore SS-V Redline is what $8,000 more then the mustang new ? And now they are dead . And getting replaced by an astra looking Commodore lol. The only people i know that drive commodores anyway are wanks. People say buy the Commodore it will be worth heaps later on ... bs .. there are millions of them in oz .. and no one other holden enthusiasts or any hardcore car enthusiast in oz can tell the difference between SS , SS-V , SS-V Redline , SS-V Redline motorsport Edition , HSV R8 , HSV GTS etc from a quick glimps. They all look the same ! Yeah i know they look a tiny bit different but you catch my drift. I've owned 3 Commodores in the past all broke down even a new VE SV6 back in the day an old VS and VZ . VT was the most reliable model they made. Persides all the motors for the HSVs come from America anyway .. if it wasn't for the US Australia wouldn't have HSV. The HSV uses Chevy Corvette engines in most their models. The mustang has heritage, has value, has style. Drive both for a week see which one gets more looks. Spend $7k on the mustang and will even smoke a HSV R8 Supercharged. And sound better. I know people who left Holden to work at ford even before they shut. Even convert to ford. I had a XR6 and XR8 never a problem. Yes Im Aussie but we cant make shit other then Burgers and Pies.
Hugh Mungus read the report it's got 2 star because of no automatic emergency braking and lane departure warning, child safety at the rear is not good.
I like ford but the mustang is an impractical piece of shit car. Way too small inside and not enough balls under the hood. The ssv is a gutsy cruiser and track car as well as a weekend driver for the family.
The 2020 Shelby GT500 will destroy this thing. 760hp from a 5.2L V8 supercharged engine with a DCT transmission. 10.5s and 10.6s in the quarter mile. It's a track oriented car with a big wing with 550lbs of downforce plus cup 2 tires.
c'mon they atleast slipped a 5er under the table, the mustang has a beautiful snarly "im gonna' tear your throat out" sound and the holden sounds too flat and restricted, put a custom exhaust on its a different story
Commodore for sure!
kiwicant The Ford Mustang is like the show off but the Conmdore is the performance!
You meant Chinese cars
The Holden driver was changing gears painfully slow to me, you can hear the revs fall off at each gear change and he seemed to be off the throttle too long in both cars. The Holden sounds much more to my liking.
I love the Mustang but the SS kills it. Absolute work of art
a commodore sedan thats no longer being produced is a work of art? How come nobody wants it then? Pitty the factory closed down.
@@saauuzza definitely a work of art weather you like it or not mate
@@saauuzza shows how much you know, GM shut Holden down irrespective of the commodores success here in aus. All cutting costs...
Mustang leaves the ss for dead! Slap a gt500 kit on it and makes any ss look ugly!
Commodore in everyway! the mustang has an interior from 2009.
djp4nfa commodore interior is worst looks old and tacky with cheap materials.

LOL the VF's interior is in another league. Maybe try sitting in the cars before making a fanboy statement.
@@RED0N3 Yeh its so good that they are still making it and its selling like hot cakes all over the world.
Sales numbers won't help that sub par interior.
Happy Cupcake mustang has a mix of can’t be bothered updating, this will do ,uh don’t need that ether , I’m board.
Somehow the Holden fanboys think being left more than a second behind is a win?
Is that coz it's slow or opperator error
Holden would have a R&D department maybe a tenth the size of what created the Mustang, has a higher CoG, heavier, less power, and to be about 1 second off the Mustang around Sandown, I'd say it did OK 🙄
just over 1 second difference actually. pretty good for heaps more weight and same power in 4 door family car.
SS is heavier so power to weight ratio is better on Mustang but I do agree that 6.2 L making 304kw is not impressive. Cant compare turbo engines
@@DaFatYak
A45 also is turboed, which u counts (in car racing), for how many cc?
Was good to see this and times. Don't feel so bad for my focus now 😊
That shit box Mustang only has a 2 star safety rating it's a death trap!! Would pick the Commodore any day.
Commodore for days, I'm a Holden person
Welcome to the the Holden family
Missing teeth and mullet package waiting in the driver's seat.
VF SSV REDLINE guts? VY SS body? VYs are light asf ez claps boys
Fuck me I need to import a SS V Redline to the States. I miss driving Holdens.
you have chevy ss
Mustang all the way, sounds better looks better
Holden sounded much more meaty.
That's because of Holden's neat trick;
A special hole is cut into the exhaust to bring that noise INTO the cabin, not away to its quad exhausts.
whats the lap times, forget the sound factor ?
They need to run the flat plane crank 5.0 mustang.... then you would have a real contest
The flat plane 5.2 is only in the GT350. It is a wicked sounding car.
That mustang is bumpy as hell
You drove that SS like Nanna!
COMMODORE by far the mustang wasn't even in the race
louisiana 2001 mustang was faster by nearly 2 secs what were you watching?
Joe Lalon sure but the Commodore won the race because it was a sound race not a timed lap
Mustang sounds better.
Commodore is a better car.
I don’t care how it sounds what’s the reliability and pros and cons I already know you basically have to rebuild the gear box on the mustang as soon as you buy it

Holden smashed the other shitbox
Jamie Smith how?
So what ? are they both shit boxes? is that what you meant? I like the ford not the Vauxhall
Mustang was over a second faster. Some shitbox got smashed alright.
David Duthie bruh it’s Holden
alan mac lol rip VF had a bigger engine
would like to see the 304kw commodore instead of the 270kw
This is the 6.2ltr 304kw Commodore.
Holden for the win
absolutely no question the Holden
With Falcon XR8 gone Holden should’ve made a Monaro SS to compete with the Mustang GT coupes.
Commodore every time
Holden for shore
Commodore all day.
Hit play, didn't see Tegan Lawson, I moved on
Lol
CarAdvice.com, ;)..it's just that she's so damn sexy. You understand I'm sure
Has the holden got a v8 in it doesn't sound like it lol
holden ftw
SHEEEEEEEEEEEET
Maybe the Mustang would have sounded better if someone who knew how to change gears drove it
SSV Redline by a mile.......
This guy needs to learn how to heel and toe
i admit the holden sounded better but on race day it;s not who sounds best its the fastest sorry crapperdoor
Commodore is better
Prefer the mustang
answer at 2:25
The mustang won though by 2 seconds.
The holden Commodore SS-V Redline is what $8,000 more then the mustang new ? And now they are dead .
And getting replaced by an astra looking Commodore lol.
The only people i know that drive commodores anyway are wanks.
People say buy the Commodore it will be worth heaps later on ... bs .. there are millions of them in oz .. and no one other holden enthusiasts or any hardcore car enthusiast in oz can tell the difference between SS , SS-V , SS-V Redline , SS-V Redline motorsport Edition , HSV R8 , HSV GTS etc from a quick glimps.
They all look the same !
Yeah i know they look a tiny bit different but you catch my drift.
I've owned 3 Commodores in the past all broke down even a new VE SV6 back in the day an old VS and VZ . VT was the most reliable model they made.
Persides all the motors for the HSVs come from America anyway .. if it wasn't for the US Australia wouldn't have HSV.
The HSV uses Chevy Corvette engines in most their models.
The mustang has heritage, has value, has style.
Drive both for a week see which one gets more looks.
Spend $7k on the mustang and will even smoke a HSV R8 Supercharged.
And sound better.
I know people who left Holden to work at ford even before they shut.
Even convert to ford.
I had a XR6 and XR8 never a problem.
Yes Im Aussie but we cant make shit other then Burgers and Pies.
Bye bye Holden, Hello Stang
Keith Ratnayake be willing to say goodby to your legs as well because I'm quite sure the mustang only has a 2 star ancap safety rating
That hasn't stop people buying it mate. It's the best selling sports car in Australia since 2015
Hugh Mungus read the report it's got 2 star because of no automatic emergency braking and lane departure warning, child safety at the rear is not good.
I like ford but the mustang is an impractical piece of shit car. Way too small inside and not enough balls under the hood. The ssv is a gutsy cruiser and track car as well as a weekend driver for the family.
The 2020 Shelby GT500 will destroy this thing. 760hp from a 5.2L V8 supercharged engine with a DCT transmission. 10.5s and 10.6s in the quarter mile. It's a track oriented car with a big wing with 550lbs of downforce plus cup 2 tires.
this is not the best mustang out there
Allen Saunders and thats not the best commodore either...?
I see Holden pays a lot for their reviews
Now, now. Don’t be a cry baby.
c'mon they atleast slipped a 5er under the table, the mustang has a beautiful snarly "im gonna' tear your throat out" sound and the holden sounds too flat and restricted, put a custom exhaust on its a different story
[Cykoid] I think you need your ears checked
