Australian HISTORY even, can be found in the last episode of Top Gear Australia Season 2 (Episode 8).... The Ford GTHO Phase III.

The Hoey, as it's affectionately known, was a beast when it came out in 1971. They are currently the most expensive local cars, with some fetching up to AU$800,000 (US$640,000)!

Grab the episode if you want to learn more about it :)

Unfortunately not. The Commodore, to my knowledge, has always been an Australian car. Some Commodore shapes have been <strike>copied from</strike> inspired by GM Europe though.
