I'd need beer goggles to find that attractive!

The car is a bit over the top, but that colour is awful!

Its far too racey for an old man like you, Mr Tunnie.
I think its an acceptable compromise between bland and chavtastic.

bring it over as a PI, £22O a year road tax. I like it, estate version

It's a V8 I'd have it not fussy about the colour 😉

My brain won't work in NM or KW
Conversion table says 474 KW is 635 BHP, 815 NM is 600 lb ft of twist. :y
Should be adequate.

Explains the signum ;)

Looks just the same as the over-priced-we've-sold-none UK offering to my eye. :-\

Would it tow your caravan Nige? ;)
-
It would tow his house...
-
Ideal mid life crisis car :y
mmmmmmmmmmmmm!
Had that a few years ago but hey ho if I had the spare cash I would get it but maybe not in such a conservative colour.
Lime green or Sunburst yellow would do.
That way if you were deaf you would still be able to know it was coming :y :y

.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
-
It would tow his pikey house...
with ease'

V8 or not, the VF Commodore looks like it was spawned by Hyundai... Estate is better if only because it doesn't have the rear lights from a Civic IMA... ::)

that's what nitro did, his is a nice lime green :y

I like it, a lot. Would have to be the estate version though.
We have a dog now, and all the family should be able to feel the benefit of that many BHP. Selfish to keep it all to myself ;D
-
Get on while you can as this will be the last lot of V8's to come from down under. Holden plant is shutting this summer, Ford i think has already shut. and there will be no more built.
Holden are also dropping the V8 engine as well and from what i've seen on V8 Super Cars site the next race car will be a space frame chassis with V6 twin turbo rwd with a new Insignia body shell crafted on but there will not be a RWD Insignia offered for sale

I feel the old pooch would be spending a lot of time stuck to the back window ;D ;D
-
HSV still offering LPG / CNG conversions ?
Can you even fit a tow bar ?
If yes to both, best get saving :D :D

Finally some sense being spoken ;)
Best we can hope for is the 2.8 twin turbo with awd... if we're really well behaved, then we might get a sniff of the 3.6 awd, but there's more chance of the Lotus Carlton being rereleased ::)
-
I'd take the estate version any day and twice on Sunday! :y
-
Looks like they allowed a 10 year old to restyle a Ford Focus. Hideous. ::)
-
Chevrolet Caprice be cheaper to buy and import... fit an early VXR8 interior and call it job done ;)

Yes it's a left hooker, but it is the fastest colour :D

$13k so that's about £10k in real money plus shipping, plus import. Cheaper to buy a monaro, or vxr8.

Would it tow your caravan Nige? ;)
Is it rated to tow? Lexus you can't... but I'm guessing Aussies tow lot of stuff so no issues with pikey bar.
-
Here do...

Also a factory option ;)

Who cares ? :) If I could afford one of those I could also afford a dedicated towcar !! :)
-
Yes, a bit over the top. I prefer the conventional R8 or even GTS. But in a more normal colour and without the huge wing, I would drive it. That's bonkers power! A lot of fun to be had after dropping the kids off at school. ;D

Fixed that for you :P :P :D :D ;D

When I lived in London, this would be a drug dealers car ::) :-X
-
Yep I would have that one. Colour is fine. You can't see that from inside. It would blend with the undergrowth when you had your first off. Easy to find in the car park though I would probably park it furthest from the entrance anyway.
