Dispite the fact that the Cubbie is a few10th's faster in manual form, the GT is clearly a better car all round.If the the comparo was based on both cars in Auto form the GT would be a mile ahead.

Posted 03/12/03 09:37 PM Share Posted 03/12/03 09:37 PM That's a great effort having only three VERY EXPENSIVE Euro's ahead of the GT which you could probably get two for the price of one of the Euro's. I know which (two cars) I'd prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost out on pricing and fuel econ. If you have the money, it's the real winner, imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Holdens are series 2 and they're still one step behind BA. Falcons really are kicking butt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
