this is a simple question to collectors of roadcars...

i think a sun/moon roof would be HOT!!!!

wouldnt it be nice to let some light inside the car so you could better see the interior detail too

No! leave the sunroof out,they always seem to leak. I would go for the interior light but I would probably leave it on by mistake and end up with a flat battery :)

From memory I think you will find that the 15th Anniversary Clubsport will have a sunroof.

i think if the car came out with a sunroof then biante will make it with a sunroof. if it was only optional then i think it shouldne come out with one. if you want a sunroof its not that hard to put one in if you know what you are doing.

You're right Grubby, the 15th will have a sunroof. I'm not fussed whether they do or not. Although most cars do not have them from the factory, so maybe they shouldn't on the models.

too hard then to polish the roof. but one on a sandman with the side domes would look fantastic in 1:18! naked airbrushing optional:cool:

Did the 15th Anniversary Clubsport come standard with a sunroof or was it an option ?

I guess either way the model should be interesting with one.

I had a look on the HSV website, and the pics of the 15th sedan has a sunroof. They only made 45 of these, so I guess it is a standard option, only on the sedan though, pics of the ute have no sunroof, 25 utes were made.

And here's one of the 15th Anniversary Maloo, this would look awesome next to the Clubsport in the display cabinet.

Would still love to see a WH Grange in my display.

Just read the press release on it, there will be 105 Clubsports, 45 Clubsport R8s and 25 Maloos. Here are some details from the release:

HSV Celebrates 15th Anniversary!!!

Look back over the years since the creation of Holden Special Vehicles in 1987 and it's impossible not to be struck by the profound impact the marque has had on the Australian automotive landscape.

From the release of the very first model, HSV's enticing blend of enhanced performance, bold styling and affordability has captured the hearts and minds of Australians from all walks of life, irrespective of gender or age. Today, as the company celebrates its 15th Anniversary the mantle of Australian performance car icon sits easily with HSV.

In keeping with the pattern established for the 5th Anniversary and the 10th Anniversary, where special models were introduced to recognise these milestones, HSV is commemorating this significant event by releasing a range of limited edition 15th Anniversary models. This exclusive range is based on the popular ClubSport, ClubSport R8 and Maloo models, with either manual or automatic transmission. Volume is strictly limited numbers to 105 units, 45 units and 25 units, respectively.

Features include unique HSV 15th Anniversary badging and 'Bright Sparkle' silver alloy wheels. Sedan versions sport an HSV Sunroof, while all models include distinctive interior touches such as 15th Anniversary embroidered front floor mats and HSV aluminium sill plates. Most units will be produced in Delft Blue (not previously available on sedan models) while a small number will also be available in Phantom Black and Sting Red.

Each of the limited edition vehicles will feature a special 15th Anniversary HSV Build Plate and Owner's Certificate carrying a unique build number (ClubSport 1 - 105, ClubSport R8 1 - 45, Maloo 1 - 25). In addition to the usual HSV Owner's Own gift selection, purchasers will also receive a special 15th Anniversary men's and lady's watch. Given the small production numbers of these vehicles and the response from customers to previous HSV limited editions, the 15th Anniversary models are sure to be highly sought after.HSV Celebrates 15th Anniversary!

I was looking at getting one painted also. Not sure what I am going to do about the rims though.

Would also love a VS II Clubsport - Genisis Blue if possible.
