Getting a new car!!!!!!!

Hi Guys and gals

I haven't been around much lately due to things going on and I retreated into my own little world for a while but I'm back baby....:lol:

Anyway. I am buying a new car and thought I'd show it to you...

Commodore VE SS-V review and specs

It's a 6.0 litre V8, 6 speed manual with 270Kw and 530Nm.

It's Holden's (GM) top sports model...

The colour is as per picture below....

I'm picking it up tomorrow.....:woohoo:
 
I feel inclined to call you all manner of names and then turn green with envy!

Thats one sweet vehicle mate but you will know all about it when you get to the bowser, weeeeeee.

Oh yeah 270kw? Surely with the addition of twin turbos that could be "tweaked" to around 500kw? Just a thought :hell:

Moyboy,
If you find a 7 Pod jammed in your tailpipe you know who is responsible.
Nice car by the way.

I don't do massive amounts of driving so the fuel thing won't worry me to much, plus....gone are the days of the thirty 1970 style V8's.....This car is pretty good fuel wise.

I'll be upgrading the exhaust and putting a new cold air intake on it then giving it a re tune which will make it sound heaps better and give it about 310Kw....

The main thing I have to remember is it's double license demerit points for this long weekend.....:lol:

Nice car! Not sure how to convert those power figures to American. :lol: That has a 'vette engine in it right?

Yeah it has the Vette engine in it.

The Pontiac G8 for the USA and Canada guys is basically my car with a sightly different front bumper....
 
Extra 40kw with just cold air intake and exhaust sounds pretty darn good, plus now you will be able to s$%t all over your brother and his measly 250hp :P
 
Damn mate...a $42K USD car....o0

Nice rocket ship ya got there...ya gonna convert it to run on Nova's Dorsets and 'Shine? ;)
 
Mate the octane rating of my purified water would give that V8 THREE times the power!! You have flames coming out the exhaust FAW SHAW :hell:
 
Excellent. Thats a hella nice ride there, sir. I've had some seat time in a 'mildy'(:hell:) modified G8 and it just about peeled my face off.
 
If i remember correctly the GTO and the G series pontiacs are all made in Australia, or they were in the begining. That is a 4 door GTO and they are awesome
 
Thanks guys...I get it today :woohoo:

and yeah the main holden manufacturing plant is in South Australia and they produce all the above vehicles that are sold overseas.
 
Well I got the new car. Holy Sh*t it bloody goes like a race car.....

I absolutely love it. It been one of my dreams to own this car.

Some pics of the new car and some pics of my old car and new car together. I actually owned both of them for about 4 minutes....
