vt commodore hsv clubsport r8 signature??

Sharyn and I just found an vt clubby R8 in a caryard.

What we would like to know is if anyone knows for sure if these come out with a "signature" upgrade as it has signature badges as well.. it is also classed as 255kw.

If anyone knows if they did have a few signature models( I have only associated Signature with Senator's b4) could you please let us know ASAP as we are seriously thinking of getting this car if it proves to be an original rare signature R8

It appears the VT 11 did have a 255kw engine but cannot find anything re: signature for them only the senator.

Pretty Sure the VT Series 2 R8 250Kw engine and the VX got the 255kw

Numbers of them made were
VT II Clubbie
Auto 1255
Man 190

VT II Clubbie R8
Auto 123
Man 70

So if it is an R8 Manual Clubsport not heaps of them anyway.

VT2 R8 has over the Clubsport:

- HSV Performance Suspension for ultimate handling response and roadholding includes Performance rated springs, dampers and anti-roll bars
- HSV 27mm front anti-roll bar, 16mm rear anti-roll bar
- HSV Performance rated semi-trailing arm inboard bushes
- HSV Performance Brake system with larger 330 X 32mm ventilated front discs, 315 X 18mm ventilated rear discs, upgraded pads - HSV embossed front callipers
- HSV Performance 5 spoke 18 X 8 inch alloy wheels in Thunderbird Silver
- HSV specification premium Bridgestone 235/40ZR18 SO2 directional tyres
- HSV wraparound Performance Coulson seats trimmed in dark Florence/Quartz fabric and colour coded
- HSV R8 identification

If the Car is a signature Series you would assume it would be leather seats which I didn't think was in a R8 and may been a special order hence signature.

I would contact HSV and give the vin number and get them to check options they would be more than happy to help. I did find one person listing they had one of only two R8 with a an interior option but didn't say what it was this may be car 2 .

Good luck

We ended up buying it as the signature badges looked the age of the car.

We believe it is a genuine rare r8 with the senator stuff added.
It comes with a 260 watt maestro series hsv stereo with ten stacker in boot, it has all woodgrain dash and gear shift console. It has also got climate control and senator signature Gold wheels.
electric sunroof and it is a one owner with 136k on the clock.

Comes with all drivers manuals and service records.

So yes, I think we have a really nice rare old girl and have started giving Shazz lectures already lololol, however the more lectures will probably result in less driving for me so i should shut up.

Also to keep her happy, could you guys please let her win every race

Well done I bet it gives the xr6 a good kicking

oh yeah, its a lot quicker nearly same weight and 75-80 kw more but a turbo xr6 would give it a scare, but the clubby is an investment so it will be babied
