Not really surprising they both were so close to each other, suposedly the same power and the F6 only 6kg's heavier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same cannot be said for Ford. It still amazes me that Ford released a turbo six as factory. Lets hope they give the V8's a shot in the arm as well.Time will tell how good the new Late model camira is. Whatever it is like it will sell well and they will be lining up T's at the lights where ever you are. Good luck guys, I rekon we might need it.Scotty←Keep an an eye on those Maloo's. They do go,VZ or otherwise, Edit and Zorst they haul.Takes until 3rd to catch em. Bastards Would not be suprised if I am in a modded Expensive Daewoo sometime soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you didn't have to look at them, these new HSV's really are a force to be reckoned with Lumpy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmac450 Member 1,650 Member For: 18y 3m 30d Gender: Male Location: NSW Posted 11/10/06 10:44 PM Share Posted 11/10/06 10:44 PM I can't beleive you all put so much credibility in Motor and Wheels published times. They have never been acurate and as long as they are willing to compromise their integrity for dollars, then they always will be.Think back to the first test Wheels published on a T v XR8 v SS. Both Falcons were faster. The very next issue, for some reason, they ran an almost identical test, but this time the SS was amazingly almost a second faster and touted as the best there (my local Ford dealer had the articles on their walls for a while to proove a point).Both magazines, for several years now, have consistantly published quicker time for Holdens and usually slower ones for Ford, go to any public drag meet and you'd find the oposite. Also, Michael Sthal seems to get conflicting results on his Drive tests compared to his mag efforts.Sorry, but these mags can't be trusted to deliver credible reviews.

If a turbo 4l makes big power a turbo/sc 6l makes much bigger power.As for looks, the VE looks stunning from most angles. much nicer than BF. BF is still nice especially an FPV, but those massive overhangs let it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisegye Member 20 Member For: 19y 2m 19d Posted 12/10/06 06:25 PM Share Posted 12/10/06 06:25 PM your opinion mr matestyk, I think the ve looks horrible from behind, looks a bit average from the side with those weird guards more so the front guard. front looks great, all on all very much like a lexusish look, that's my opinion, I much prefer the smooth ,lines of the bf ford. didnt think I said mines the fastest car on the road either, but there arent many s/c ve commodores out there yet. youd also be surprised between moddified 4l turbo vs 6l s/c in street trim on the road mate comes down to traction, 6l s/c may make more power but does this make it faster on the street? no offence bud all in a days fun, looking forward to seeing what whips my ass then I will congradulate them.
