At the Australia International Motor Show in Sydney Holden released their Efijy concept. The design of the car is based on the 1953 Holden FJ. The car is based on a 70 cm stretched Corvette C6 chassis. It is powered by a supercharged 6.0-litre V8 which produces 652 bhp and 775 Nm of torque. It's clear this car will stay in a concept stage and will never be mass-produced.

If only Holden actually put some of these concepts into production - they are much more exciting than what they currently offer. :D
Looks great IMO, and agree with dani on the Exelero comparison.

Whaohh... one can say that the Batmobile style is quite trendy these days!! Between the Exelero and this one...
But it is true that it looks pretty cool. Certainly not the type of car for high speed cornering but more for long cruising. And what about the length. 5.20m :shock: not that easy to park at the supermarket !

I love it, I think it looks great
Holy crap that is so damn hot what a shame it will never meet production and the power and drivetrain :shock: I just wonder if that engine will get used I hope to God it does some day. I love the replica FJ steering wheel to

That car is so fucking cool.
It's got scarface written all over it. Imagine it in Ferrari-red, or black with red flames like those American Hot Rods.
Fucking cool. Really fucking cool.

Fuckin' awesome!!! :o :love: :drool: :drool:
It would be amazing if they would produce it. A car with top technology but with a look from the 50's :wink:
At least the idea was great. 8)

It seems every year Holden steals the show in Sydney - their concepts are brilliant! I think its time for Ford to step up and match them......
Another great Aussie design (or is that the first?), I'm so proud. :D

That's seriously among the best concept cars EVER
If only they ever made it...maybe it wouldn't be a mondeo type seller, but Holden would be ingrained into the minds of every car nut

omg, the entire car is gorgeous. the engine looks like a huge boulder that was chromed. its still wonderful though. i wonder if theyll make a droptop concept version of this.........
WAAO.. that is very very beautiful.. Look at the screen.. It has a suspension setting.. Show, Drive and load. I guess Show is the lowest and load well hehe Off road.. :mrgreen: .. But on a serious note, most big manufactureres are bring back their old classic shapes with a new heart so why can't holden bring this to life.. :|

looks really good, awesome, but the sad part is ... there is probably almost 0% chance this car will make it into production, what a shame, so much wasted talent on designing this cool looking car
