HSV release 25th Anniversary ClubSport R8

Presented in the high-series "R8" spec, the 25th Anniversary ClubSport features the current model's 340kW LS3 GenIV V8, AP Racing forged 4-piston brake calipers, HSV Performance seats in Onyx leather and advanced technologies like Enhanced Driver Interface (EDI) and Driver Preference Dial.

 

Features exclusive to the limited edition include lightweight 20-inch SV Rapier alloys in Gloss Black, Hyperflow Performance rear spoiler, a range of "pitch black" exterior accents and quad exhaust outlets with shadow-chrome tips.

 

Inside, the 25th Anniversary edition features uniquely branded sill plates, plus a '25 Clubsport' console I.D. plate and branded EDI start-up screen. Limited to just 100 units for Australia and 8 for New Zealand, each vehicle will also be individually numbered.

 

Available in a choice of four colours (Heron, Phantom, Sting and Nitrate), with either a 6-speed manual or optional 6-speed auto with Active Select and Paddle-shifters, the 25th Anniversary Clubsport R8 lists for $73,290 - unchanged from the regular ClubSport R8 price.

 

"Along with GTS, ClubSport has been one of the mainstays of the HSV line-up through its proud history", said HSV's Managing Director, Tim Jackson. "We're sure the added value offered with the 25th Anniversary ClubSport R8 will be well received by our fans."
