An exceptionally rare HSV GTSR W1 Maloo has emerged for sale in Australia. Listed by specialist brokerage Chrome Temple for A$1.1 million, build E005 is described as the sixth and final W1-specification Maloo completed by Walkinshaw Performance. The listing drew fresh specialist coverage on November 5, 2026. That figure is an asking price, not an auction result or a verified sale.
The car is a 2017 HSV GTSR Maloo, but its W1 identity dates from a later conversion. Walkinshaw completed the upgrade in 2023, giving it the last number in the E000-to-E005 sequence. Four W1-specification Maloos were finished in 2017, with two more conversions following later. That distinction is crucial for a buyer: E005 is documented as the final Walkinshaw-built example, not one of four cars completed during the original 2017 programme.
Its engine is the supercharged 6.2-litre LS9 V8, rated at 474 kW and 815 Nm. A Tremec TR-6060 six-speed manual transmission and ZF Sachs twin-plate clutch send power to the rear wheels. SupaShock dampers, AP Racing brakes, Pirelli P Zero Trofeo R tyres and W1-specific chassis components complete the mechanical package. The specification also includes wider front guards with carbon-fibre vents.
Finished in Heron White, E005 has a Jet Black interior with the Alcantara trim, embroidery and dedicated build plaque associated with the W1. Chrome Temple says the ute has remained with one owner, has never been registered and retains its factory wrapping and identification stickers. Its odometer reads just 39 km, although the published account does not establish whether that figure covers use before the 2023 conversion.
The broker describes a substantial provenance file. A signed Walkinshaw Certificate of Authentication, build receipts, conversion photographs and VASS engineering approval are offered with the car. Those documents support the seller's description of the work, but the listing itself notes that not every detail can be independently verified.
HSV never offered a W1-powered Maloo as a regular production model. The six completed examples occupy a different place in Australian performance-car history from the series-built W1 sedans, and the two later conversions add another distinction for collectors. E005's first public offering therefore puts a price on a remarkably scarce, manual-transmission V8 ute with an unusually well-documented final build.
