The other gears are just there to determine how angry the police officer is with you

Limited run, not sure why. The adjustable suspension is an extra btw iirc was in auto news/similar.

Limited numbers as the Monaro is going out and will be replaced (Probably with the Commodore ) so Mr and Mrs Vauxhall want to ensure they can get rid of the last few remaining Monaros without a problem - best way to do that? Drop the price, jam pack it full of go-faster goodies and make it more desirable as a limited edition version!
