touch decision. G6ET are a tonne of fun to drive but dont feel that special on the inside than a normal Falcon. A Calais is much more luxurious on the inside but doesn't have the fun factor with your right foot like the G6ET has. People are going to be biased on here though.

All FGs dont come with factory roof, but you can get an aftermarket one fitted - i enquired Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I reckon go the Calais as Commodores sell much better than Falcons and the Falcon may be cancelled soon which may affect parts and resale values. If you are worried about performance then look at the mods for the Calais' L98 engine - doesnt take a lot to get big power gains and if you decide to boost it in the future it will "decimate all" Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
