Description/extras: A genuine, matching numbers A9X Torana that has been a part of the current custodians private collection for over 30 years. Only 405 A9X Toranas were produced for sale to the public, which consisted of 305 four-door sedans and 100 two-door hatches, making this one of the rarest Holden Toranas ever produced. This vehicle presents in great original condition and underwent a full engine rebuild in 2012. It
Introduced in August 1977 in time for the Sandown 500 endurance race.
The A9X Torana was released by G.M.H. without any advertising or promotion of any description. Although never documented or verified by GMH, it appears this was to ensure there was no repeat of the "Supercar Scare" of 1972. The A9X was introduced as a "Performance Equipment Package" option (not a special model) and was available with the LX Torana SS or SL/R with the 5.0 litre, 308 cubic inch V8 engine. The changes to the A9X were so significant; it really did qualify as a specific model. All A9X Toranas were compliance between August 1977 and December 1977, with the exception being one vehicle compliance in January 1978. The colours were Palais White, Panama Green, Flamenco Red, Ultra Blue, Jasmine Yellow, Valencia Orange, and Dynasty Gold. Further exterior options were then made available including black, and variations in blue, yellow, orange, green, red, and bronze/gold/tan. Contrary to popular belief, not all A9X four-doors had silver around the paint-out on the rear spoiler. Both silver and black were used, depending on the colour of the vehicle. Log books/Owners manuals included.
