Dont get me wrong Statos are really nice cars but their so purpose is a luxury car and nothing else and besides a VLCT would eat and sh*t out a VQ Stato out of its ass. And besides VL Calais' and VQ Statesmans are no comparison to each other as they are nothing alike and come from different eras in styling. A VQ has like 6-7 years on a VL Calais and we all know that styling from the mid to late 80s changed dramatically in the early 90s.

Dude a VL Calais and a VQ Statesman are two completly different car I mean the names say it all FFS.Comparing a Calais and Statesman it like comparing a VT Calais to a New Statesman their completly different. How ever if we were talking about VN Calais' against VL Calais' the response would be much different.

Its a darkish silver. it has custem exausght and stuff. http://www.picklesauctions.com.au/s...em_id=252002248 (http://www.picklesauctions.com.au/servlet/Auction/VehicleDetail?item_id=252002248) I like the inside. Looks classcy! I know for a fact that car isn't for sale anymore as I saw it at a wreckers in braybrook/sunshine today was running. The paint is shagged might be the salt air has effected the paint (as in rooted it) as that appeared to be the only floor
