On way to work this morning was following what I 1st thought was a super neat custom FJ ute... Turns out it was actually a Chev SSR...
Did a google & found the actual car on Ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/RED-CHEVROLET...QQcmdZViewItem

Saw a yellow one in Frankston about 3 months ago with Vic plates – certainly stands out in a crowd. The later (6.0 litre) model is apparently the one to go for. As a cruiser rather than a workhorse they have a lot of appeal.

If you watch NAScar, the pace car is usually one of these.
And if you play GT4 you can race one. I race it all the time. Its ugly in real life. It looks better on the game.

IMHO i think its FUGLY.
To me retro cool was the initial Mustang concept, that somehow was magled into the current mustang, this thing looks like a VW Beattle on steriods and ute-back. |
