Earlier this month, we reported that the final Chevrolet Caprice PPV was produced at the GM-Holden Elizabeth factory, officially known as Holden Vehicle Operations, in Australia on May 18th, 2017. Having reached out to the folks at Holden PR, we now know what the last unit to roll off the line was.
Specifically, the final model was a 2017 model year 1EW19 (Caprice PPV Sedan model code) with the 9C1 police package coated in Heron White powered by the optional 6.0L L77 V-8 engine and standard 6-speed MYC automatic transmission.

The remaining in-stock units of the Caprice PPV will be sold off throughout the remainder of calendar year 2017. Meanwhile, the Aussie-market Holden Caprice on which the Chevy Caprice PPV is built, remains in production but not for long, as the plant will cease production later this year.

Almost thought they said Heroin White! LOL
will there be replacement f this police car ?
Police Interceptor cars can be very muscle-car touted!!!
IF GM WOULD PUT OUT A RETAIL VERSION OF THE CAPRICE “CLASSIC” I CAN VOUCH THAT IT WILL SELL OUT 50% MORE THAN WHAT IT WILL SELL TO THE LAW ENFORCEMENT UNITS NATIONWIDE. WITH THE EXCEPTION TO THE POWER PLANT UNDER THE HOOD. BUT WHAT USE WOULD THAT BE WHEN YOU HAVE ALMOST THE SAME POWER PLANT UNDER THE HOOD OF A CORVETTE. I MYSELF IN A MOST LIKELY CASE WOULD PROBABLY BE ONE OF THE CAPRICE *CLASSIC* RETAIL BUYERS. LATELY I HAVE BEEN ON THE LOOKOUT FOR A CHEVROLET IMPALA SS BUT JUST FOUND OUT THAT EVEN WITH THE 8 CYL. IT WAS STILL A FRONT WHEEL DRIVE INSTEAD OF A REAR WHEEL DRIVE WHICH DISAPPOINTED ME. BUT HEY, YOU FOLKS CAN CHANGE THAT FOR ME AND LOTS OF OTHER FOLKS. BUILD A CAPRICE UNIT FOR THE RETAIL MARKET. THEY WILL SELL DUDE!!!! THEY WILL SELL!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂
DISAPPOINTED (IMPALA SS) BUT LOOKING FOR A
LITTLE HOPE (IN THE CAPRICE (*CLASSIC*) IN ALABAMA……..

The 98 Impala and caprice was both rear wheel drive homie. Don’t know where you got your info, but you were misinformed.
