Umm, has anyone here actually driven the new VE SS V series? Amazing is all I have to say. The XR has the better fuel economy, but hands down the SS is quicker, much better around corners, better interior and more fun to drive. Everywhere else that there was comparison's the VE was better than the XR6t. Such as PCOTY. Well that's my bit of controversy for today. don't get me wrong love the XR good value for money, and will keep her for a long time.
