	Holden Statesman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Previously, Holden's early 1970s' boss Leo Pruneau had insisted that the Statesman ride like a Cadillac, which was not to everyone's taste.
		In 1990, demand for a full-size luxury sedan in Australia saw Holden resurrect the name on a long-wheelbase version of its Holden Commodore, which in turn was a heavily revised and enlarged Opel Omega B. The VQ series Statesman of 1990–4 featured a 5·0 L engine.
		Holden made many efforts to distinguish the Statesman from the Commodore, with a formal grille, a very different glasshouse reminiscent of contemporary GM products such as the Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, all while incorporating the doors from the lower models.

	Holden - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Holden 48/215, introduced in 1948, was a medium-sized vehicle fitted with a 132 in³ (2.15 L) engine, and based on a design proposed for the 1949 Chevrolet, that had been rejected as being too small for that purpose.
		Holden sold the Nissan Pulsar as a Holden Astra (not to be confused with the Opel-sourced model of the same name) and used the 3.0 L 6 cylinder RB engine from Nissan's Skyline in the VL Commodore (1986-1988).
		Holden also exports its Statesman sedan to the Middle East as the Chevrolet Caprice, to South Koreaas the Daewoo Statesman, and China as the Buick Royaum.

		Good news for Buick, and if it is simply a Holden Statesman with Buick badging and fascias, then it would be inexpensive to do (meaning it would make a lot of money for Buick if successful) and would probably be here quickly.
		The El Camino thing with Holden UTE is a strong possibility because it is already badged as a Chevrolet for the Middle East and South Africa anyway.
		Holden is the middle brand sold globally in many countries as Chevys, Daewoos, Buicks.

		Holden Chairman and Managing Director, Denny Mooney, said the improvements made to the 2004 VZ sedan and WL model series at a total development cost of $189 million represented the most substantial upgrade since the VT Commodore in 1997.
