HSV E1 W427 2008
The HSV W427 is the limited edition flagship model of the initial E Series range by Holden Special Vehicles and the only HSV model to ever be fitted with the 7.0L LS7 engine, released in celebration of the company’s 20th anniversary in 2008 and contnued production in to 2009.
The W427 is based on the Holden VE Commodore, but powered by the 7.0L LS7 V8. Power outputs are 375 kW/503 bhp at 7000 rpm and 640 Nm at 5000 rpm, It features recalibrated Magnetic Ride Control (MRC, or “MagneRide”) and stiffer suspension settings than the HSV GTS, as well as a toughened 6-speed manual gearbox, a new exhaust system, larger 6-piston brakes, and strengthened limited-slip differential.
The W427’s name is the result of a combination of factors. W is to honour the founder of HSV, Tom Walkinshaw. The 427 is simply the engine capacity in cubic inches, but it is also a nod to the HRT 427C, which won the 2002 and 2003 Bathurst 24 Hour motor races.
Consumer interest for production of the W427 actually began with the still-born HRT 427 Coupe of 2002, based on the Holden Monaro.
