2005 Holden Commodore VZ SS-Z - Phantom Black - 130,025km - 5.7L LS1 V8, Automatic, LSD
Price Guide: $15,000 - $25,000
2005 Holden Commodore VZ SS-Z sedan, Phantom Black, 5.7-litre LS1 V8, automatic transmission, rear-wheel drive with limited-slip differential, 130,025km, 5 seats.
Description
The VZ SS-Z was the top-specification Commodore performance sedan of its era, sitting above the standard SS with a more aggressive suspension tune and the SS-Z-specific bodywork that set it apart from the standard range. Power came from the 5.7-litre LS1 V8, one of the most proven American V8 architectures in Australian production cars, producing around 260kW in standard form and backed by the G44 limited-slip differential that puts the power down properly. The build plate on this car confirms FE2 sport suspension and the G44 LSD, verifying the genuine SS-Z specification. Original engine number VF051800554 is on record.
The Phantom Black paint presents with good depth and gloss from most angles, with the factory SS-Z body kit including side skirts, front spoiler and rear wing giving it a purposeful stance. The car sits on factory 18-inch five-spoke alloys with red Brembo brake calipers clearly visible, both confirming the correct SS-Z specification. The engine bay houses the 5.7L LS1 with a cold air intake fitted and red aftermarket ignition leads, both modest bolt-on modifications. An aftermarket push-button start has been installed on the steering column. The interior features black leather trim showing age-appropriate wear, with an intact dashboard and functional instrument cluster. The boot is clean and tidy. The roof panel shows swirl marks and surface oxidation consistent with outdoor storage at some point in the car's life, a cosmetic issue that a machine polish would address.
VZ SS-Z Commodores are increasingly recognised as a sweet spot in the Australian performance car market: genuine V8 credentials, LSD, sub-150,000 kilometres, and a price point that makes them accessible. Comparable VZ SS-Z examples in similar condition are trading between $15,000 - $25,000. This one has the documentation and build plate to back up its specification claims, making it a credible acquisition for buyers seeking proven Australian performance.
