MARKET ANALYSIS
VP (1991 to 1993)

The Holden VP Commodore (produced between 1991 and 1993) refined the wide-body "aero" design of its predecessor by introducing crucial technological leaps like Independent Rear Suspension (IRS) and optional ABS brakes. In the 2026 Australian market, the VP is a highly liquid entry-point into the 90s classic scene, with market values for a tidy Executive or Berlina (V6) typically ranging from $12,500 to $22,000 AUD, while the luxury Calais and rare International variants often command between $32,000 and $55,000 AUD. The high-performance VP SS and the legendary GTS—the latter featuring the 200kW four-bolt main V8—have solidified their status as investment-grade assets, with genuine examples trading between $65,000 and $145,000 AUD. Its desirability is driven by its sharper, "squared-off" aesthetics and improved mechanical refinement, attracting a dedicated buyer pool of Gen X and Millennial collectors, early-IRS purists, and ex-police (BT1) enthusiasts who prize the series for its raw 5.0L "Iron Lion" V8 character. Locally, the market favours vehicles in iconic period colours like Imperial Blue or Anthracite, as 2026 buyers increasingly prioritise factory-original interiors and documented service history over modified street machines.
