Only 250 examples of the 50^th anniversary Statesman, which is distinguished by unique styling treatments and additional luxury appointments, will be produced. This prestige long wheelbase model delivers a high-performance blend of effortless power, courtesy of Holden’s 3.8 litre Supercharged V6, and strong sporting character, accentuated by striking 17-inch sports alloy wheels and tyres.

The unique status of the limited edition Statesman is highlighted by an exclusive paint finish in Amazon blue mica with subtle tone on tone accents in Diva blue, silver alloy wheels, black lower mouldings, a body colour grille surround and 50^th anniversary badging.

The Statesman’s well-appointed passenger compartment is further complemented by a combination of slate grey Howe leather seat and door trim with stylish perforated suede inserts and embroidered seatbacks.

For added comfort and convenience, the 50^th anniversary Statesman is equipped with electrically adjustable front seats, controlling slide fore/aft, front and rear cushion height and recline functions.

In addition, buyers of this Holden Statesman will be presented with a commemorative 50^th anniversary Orrefors crystal and silver bowl, valued at $1,500.

Holden’s Marketing Manager, Large Cars, Geoff Bennett, says that for all its individual appeal, the commemorative Statesman maintains the model’s value for money tradition.

"Statesman continues to be the number one selling Australian car in the prestige segment because it delivers a world-class standard of luxury and performance at a sensible price. This limited edition model is no exception," he said.

"While it has superior feature levels and the high-tech performance advantage of a Supercharged V6, the 50^th anniversary Statesman is attractively priced at $54,560. This is $2,000 over the recommended retail price of a standard Supercharged V6 Statesman, and it represents some $5,400 worth of added value.

"This collector’s item Statesman is the final example in a succession of limited edition models we have released to commemorate our 50^th anniversary year, and we expect it to meet with high demand," Geoff Bennett concluded.
