Quote: Arh thats where FPV comes into the game. After your car is built, send it next door to FPV, say i want 18" rims DONE! i want a 3" stainless steel exhaust from the trubo back DONE! i want koni shocks and king lowered springs DONE! Then FPV slap you up for a trillion dollars Good way of doing it though, no denying that FPV seems like a good idea, hopefully it will be more succesful than FTE.

That is why i have kept VL's for years, Holden haven't brought out anything worth upgrading to. I would not lower myself to buy a Ford though. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Holden definitely need something. The VY HSV range has 260KW's - same as XR8. What are Holden going to build to match upto FPV's range? I actually saw the new HSV Clubsport the other day. It looks different to say the least, but attractive? Although many people dislike the new Commodore, Holden still sold more of them then Ford did of the new Falcon in November. How ever, the Ford ute is still the more popular. It's been a while since Ford have had such an impact on the Australian car market, but the time has come for Ford to reclaim what they made so big.
