    Holden ClubSport R8 Tourer: Hoon Families Rejoice

    The Aussies have once again shown us the way with the announcement of the Holden ClubSport R8 Tourer. For $65K AUD, about $50k USD, the R8 SportWagon offers up a stonkin' LS3 V8 with 425 horses and 405 lb-ft of torque along with all that haulin' space. The wagony awesomeness is further accentuated with a standard six-speed manual transmission, putting the automatic off as an option. Icing on the cake includes 20-inch wheels, epic body styling, a leather-wrapped interior and TLT: Tire liquefication technology. Okay, we made that part up, but it's still true. If we didn't love the Pontiac G8 ST so much, we'd be willing to trade even-up for this beast.
