G'day , Thanks , very interesting to read those numbers. Probably why a late version of Falcon hardtop in good nick draw top prices these days.
RE the Commodore coupe's , they sold a nice few two door versions in the US and in England well into the mid noughties . The GTO in America via Pontiac were bordering on a cult status car I believe and the owners are dedicated to them . Then the four door VE based G8 and the VF based Chevy SS in the same form were highly rated in the US by those who discovered them too.
There's lots of vids like this on the GTO (Monaro) like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Koq6FOBDhT8 and even more , almost all really positive on G8's and Chevy SS's..
