For that coin, I'd be wanting 30% more power than the next best thing, which would put it well over 400kw. It's on the way to supercar-like $, but without the supercar performance.

Just as many who will pay silly money for an old Ford I guess!We have to remember that there are many diehard older Expensive Daewoo fans who have grown up families, have made their money in the mining industry etc and are just looking at ways to spend it. Buying the top of the line HSV is just the way! Something there mates wont have etcThey couldnt care less that a GTR may beat it because it'll have a big thirsty V8, the lion on the front and it will sound tough. People who buy toys like this dont care about value for money either. They want it, so they go buy it! My mate who spent up big on a ride on lawn mower (with trailor converted into esky!) for an average size family lawn is a perfect example! Pointless, maybe, but why wouldnt you if you have spare cash burning holes in your pocket! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have the new GTR anyday of the week ova one of these (being a former nissan fan boy myself) EXACTLY.the new GTR is only 120K and I will right here and now bet BOTH my nuts that the GTR would run rings around that POS in EVERY WAY SHAPE AND FORM.if Expensive Daewoo spent less time toying with the "my dicks bigger than yours" than they might actually have a chance of building a decent car that's VALUE.

MiKa Donating Members 4,243 Member For: 18y 5m 12d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne, VIC Posted 20/06/08 09:54 PM Share Posted 20/06/08 09:54 PM I agree that the HSV is a POS but you cant compare a 2 door Jap sports car to a 4 door Aussie 'saloon'. Its apples and oranges.. Expensive Daewoo have nothing to compete with the GTR, its target is Euro's finest..Can the GTR fit 4-5 people comfortably? Hows the boot space? Then again the HSV would handle like sh*t and would be way slower compared to the GTR..I'd have a Fg F6, before the W427, edit and a few more mods, would have it running rings around the HSV and have better fuel economy..My 2c OHH Senna, let me know about the nut thing... and Grudgee sorry mate I need the other one...

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 20y 11m 19d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 20/06/08 10:49 PM Share Posted 20/06/08 10:49 PM Firstly the GTR will be more than $150k. By the time it is onroad, you will not see much change out of $200k.Yes it will fit 4 adults and 2 sets of golf clubs and still run a sub 13 1/4.You cannot compare the 2 cars as they are for different markets. I will wait to see what Ford bringout with the GTHO badge as they have stated they will be doing a HO and it will be a special, not just a sticker upgrade like the GT40th/Cobra.
