February Motor

[Venom XR6]

They say the Clubsport has great presence but then they go on to say that during the road test no one even looked at the Clubbie and the Typhoon was the one that drew all the attention.

Saw an F6 ute today at the Brookvale Fruit Market, and I joined the small group of people standing there to look at it.

That dosn't happen for HSV's anymore unless your at a motor show, and even then some are turning away holding their noses.

Go the F6 BF I knew it had it in it.

Did anyone read the write up on the VE from page 10 (or 11)? It says the new VE will weigh 230kg's more than the current VZ.

That being the case, the VE will weigh more than the BF, by between 50-100kgs. One would assume performance will suffer seriously in Alloytec equipped V6 VE's, and it will put a dampener on the V8 performance as well.

I wonder with this extra weight how HSV will cope. As it is, they're (VZ LS2 V8's) already copping a flogging from the BF F6 Typhoon 6-speed auto. The extra weight will disadvantage them even more.

Can't wait for the F6 vs. VE HSV R8 shootout

I read 260KW's standard for the new Vortech 8's in the commodores, HSV are sticking with the same 5.7 they have now (but would gain an increase in power if the stocko's are to get that much).

Yeah...

I bought the mag today for the flight from Melb to Sydney and it made me feel very happy with my choice.

I bet if the F6 had the Advans fitted it would have totally hosed the HSV.

I am suprised they did not get a dealer spec HSV to try to beat the F6 as they always seem to lean towards the red cars and have to dish the blue oval.

[Typhoon]

we all know that the Clubsport's nothing more than an upgraded Ironing Board, the Typhoon should not even be compeared to it any more.

Typhoon and Clubbie are as goos as each other, and not a patch on euro stuff, even some jap stuff.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Um I disagree!!!
