It might go like stink, but man it looks shocking. The front bar looks like a knock off a an aftermarket Lancer bodykit.

That red interior is hiddeous. Looks like Hellboy has been skinned and used to trim it.

Holden or not; that is one nice piece of machinery... I'm going against the grain here; the red interior is growing on me and so too the exterior styling

holden have always been behind the 8 ball for interior styling, to much red there. A nice defined red like the Force series ford produced looked fantastic.
As much as i envy anyone who has one. There just a aftermarket tarted up clubsport taxi with a extra litre and 70kws. Imagine delivering pizzas in that. fulli syk braa! |

Well done John, nice to see your hard work rewarded with this retirement toy.
19.4lt/ 100 average sounds pretty good to me during run in.

Don't think much about the red interior, and Being a white exterior I think a blue interior would look much better.
But the vehicle it's self look's quite nice and meancing, very tough looking and how can you go past the grunt and torque of the 7ltr, very nice indeed. |

This might sound a bit clique but even though its a car with massive potential and too see one it really gets the adrenaline pumping why would you buy one? why not buy an F6 or HSV and get a few upgrades. I mean come on a SUPERCHARGED CLUBSPORT EASILY HAS THE POTENTIAL OF RIPPING to 100 in the same time as a 427 and its only 75 odd grand.

Xenons are standard plus the interior would suit poofs well. Up a gear down a gear, a **** with the gearstick and we are all cheers SICK

The point is they all exist at different price and performance points for good reasons... if the above scenario is a realistic alternative in your mind you'd never understand the concept of why all these factory models exist in the first place...

For example if I had the choice between a XY GTHO Phase III, and a XY Fairmont that runs 10 all day I would choose the Phase III. Why? The Fairmont would destroy the Phase III, but the Phase III has that little thing called "rarity". I have no doubt you could get a Clubsport to go just as fast for less, but at the end of the day it's still a Clubsport. Not that there's anything wrong with a Clubsport, but it's no where near as exlcusive or as rare as a car like the W427. Last edited by Ryan; 30-09-2008 at 04:06 PM. |
