alot of nice examples ....... i intended to buy one of these beasts when i was car hunting but could never find a winner
plus the whole power output on the 5.0 turned me off em , and how much money needs to be pumped into em to get them to move
still a great car though

They are pretty good value these days if you find an unthrashed one, most people are going LS1 when it comes to V8 but a VS Senator still looks and sounds better even if its a bit down on power, you could always get a custom chip and pacemakers or something.

Diff gears, headers, cam, head work and a custom tune. And if you have the cash the intake manifold is next. Either that or supercharge it... probably cheaper and make more power

love the VS GTS and Senator's amazing car.. want one every time i see one.. infact if my plans go well ill be able to buy a senator i got my eye on.. wats the difference bettween the two in the way of the motor and running gear, having the 355 stroker of course... and why has no one put the nices GTS up ever..!

Here you go mate
The airbags ruin that car IMO... it’d be much better if it had coilovers, other than that it’s an awesome car

Yeah it looks like it''s had a fair bit spent on it, but realistically that's all it's worth to sell

Maybe so, but the blower in the engine bay more than makes up for that
Polish those covers and whack a twin-throttle body manifold on top and it'd look mint.

Sorry in my opinion an engine setup like that in a GTS doesn't go with an airbag setup
