Ah been debating that for years now,hardest thing bout being a painter,theres so much to choose from,but im stuck on a classic charcoal,one from mazda6 looks quite nice,tweek it a bit with some pearl. Engine bay has been painted few times,then over time while still working on it ive changed my mind,had really nice purple on it,but saw to many rice burners painted in it,so off it came.

Dixie its a NZ option only....has a semi kit on it....3 litre manual...and a few other minor things....and before you ask what a royale is its a more up-class model to your calais it has far posher interior than your calais hehe its VERY channel one!!!! just doesnt have a calais front which is a shame but dont get to excited because NZ didnt get the factory turbos as an option from new all the VL turbos here that are genuine wer imported...something to do with holden not supporting warrenty with our crappy fuel I was told by holden here in chch.

They have FE2 suspension though. The front lip looks a little out of place without sideskirts and rear bar, the guy my dad bought his off had LE skirts and rear put on it. Oh they also had different wheels, I have no pics though..
