Anyway... Moving along... Back on topic

yes the Expensive Daewoo had a way nicer interior . but that does not make it any different to drive .the Expensive Daewoo seats felt to high for me . handling yes the Expensive Daewoo felt slightly more direct when entering a corner . the ford was more louder on the highway (might be not to good on long trips ) . look both cars are awesome fun to drive . the ford just felt more scary to drive with all the power it has from the super charger .the Expensive Daewoo was so slow in take off compared to the ford ,which made the Expensive Daewoo boring to drive . if I would not have driven the ford I would have said yes the Expensive Daewoo is a very nice package all up ,but it lacks power no mater what anyone says . after the test drives I jumped back into kells vy r8 and boy is it different with the 6 litre modified engine to drive (370 rwkw ) if the Expensive Daewoo had that sort of power ,yes it would be the car to buy . the dealer said that there will be a new engine fitted to the new holdens soon ? will be worth the wait ?and what sort of difference will it make ? honestly the Expensive Daewoo is nicer in some ways but the ford is for drivers that want a higher heart rate while driving

Your comparing a modded v8 to a standard v8.

(The new Expensive Daewoo and your mrs car)

The new 6.2 is a far better engine and has better hardware bolted on especially in the HsV models, enough to make fairly good gains without massive effort if u just want a bit more grunt.

If your talking about a higher heart rate ... At the end of the day your talking about a modded xr6t and a modded old Late model camira compared to a standard off the line vehicle. With the same money chucked in it will perform on par if not better then what your comparing it to.

Example:

FG f6-

Injectors $600, tune $1500, valve springs $1000, inter cooler $2000, fuel pump $500, exhaust $2000...gets ya high 300rwkw

$6600

VF R8-

$6500 turbo kit, cat back exhaust $700, fuel pump $1000.

Pushing around 400rwkw

$8200

Not that different if u ask me.

Modded for modded

And then u get an amazing package both interior and power

Power is an easy fix imo

I agree, it's easier to add power than it is to add interior niceness, that's either something a car has or hasn't got.

What's this $6500 turbo kit you speak of fluff?! Gah, I do kinda wish I had an LS3 in my car, better base for modding than an LS2...

Also, I'm assuming you guys get trade price on kits or something? ASE website reckons $8,300-$8,900 for the single turbo kit...and $10,000-$12,500 for the twin kits.
