The VZ Commodore featured a minor facelift of the previous VY model.

Cosmetic changes were kept to a minimum. With that being said, however, they could be identified. The biggest changes were made under the bonnet. The VZ was the 13th model of the Holden Commodore.

Production of all VZ models began in August 2004. Production finish times staggered over a little over a year. VZ sedan production stopped in August 2006, VZ Station Wagon production stopped in September 2007, VZ Ute production stopped in August 2007.

The VE replaced the VZ.

The VZ line up featured sedan, wagon and ute models.

The VZ is the only Commodore in recent times not to release a series 2. It was the last model of the third generation of Holden Commodores, which consists of the VT, VX and VY. Commodores

VT VX VY VZ Commodore Repair Manual

The VZ introduced the Alloytec engine. It was a 3.6L V6, motor a first for the Commodore. It replaced the 3.8L ECOTEC V6 engine, an engine introduced to the Commodore line up in 1995 with the VS.

Prices for the VZ were as follows:

Executive sedan: $33 160

Acclaim sedan: $39 050

SV6: $38 990

SV8: $41 990

SS: $50 990

Berlina: $42 900

Calais: $52 660

The VZ ultimately was smaller than the VY. The engine was smaller and so was the car itself. The VZ has a few teething problems with its new Alloytec engine.

On the horizon once again, Holden were planning for big changes with the Commodore over the coming years.
