We all know that the VE is a good car, but we all own F6/XR6 Turbo's. The thing is most of us probably don't care. I new the VE was going to be pretty good (Wheels Car of the Year plus numerous other awards) But I still bought an XR6 T. Bashing the commy is just a waste of time, lets wait for the Orion and see how much better it is. Everyone feel free to disagree with me if you want.Mate the point was that,except for the OMEGA being a pig compared to a BF XT, for a billion dollar investment, I think they went backwards. I'm in the US now and rented the latest Impala, although it's a chev I have to say is a nice car, lot better than the VE and din't take anywhere near a billion to develop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I mention 2 tonnes?? much of a muchness..Never had a vision problem in any of my B series sedans F6 Ute. The A pillar in the VE is rediculous.Again I'll say my point is (apart from being an avid Expensive Daewoo HATER) For a billion dollar investment the VE is a joke Edited 08/09/07 08:14 PM by hypnodoc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
