Holden Torana SL/R 5000

The Torana SL/R 5000 represented Holden's answer to Ford's Falcon GT, featuring a potent 308ci (5.0L) V8 in a compact body. Its lightweight construction and powerful engine made it a formidable competitor in Australian touring car championships. The SL/R 5000 became an icon of Australian motorsport, with Peter Brock's victories cementing its legendary status. Today it remains one of the most sought-after Australian muscle cars.
