    i love the car, but would have been more exclusive if they did them all in the Panorama Silver, as the VL walkinshaw was back in 1987-88...

    the ugliest thing holden ever produed is the handbrake lever in the VE... when engaged, it looks so tacky! comon holden, its about time they started using electronic handbrakes.
    ex. ~2.5L V6 Vectra~
    ex. ~matte black '07 Honda VTR 250~
    current ~phantom black '11 Triumph Street Triple R~

    I dissagree...

    That 'panoramic' silver on this W427 looks crap IMHO (I've seen it in the flesh) and it looks like a total miss-match for that bright 'bordello' red interior it's got too !

    And it's NOT the same colour as on the VL Walk's either !!! it's a lighter shade of blue-ish silver, don't know why they claim it to be the same, when it looks distinctly different, this has been noted by other people too, including owners of the VL in question...

    I've seen the W427 now in 3 other colours - the red on these pages, white and fusion orange and it looks far better in either of those colours than the panorama silver IMHO.

    In the end, it is all subjective and beauty is in the eye of the beholder Click here to enlarge

    Cost comparisons when it comes to these sorts of cars are always an interesting point of discussion Pete IMO...

    I see and agree with what your saying though, sometimes we can get right off topic going there, that's when you (mods) need to come in and put the brakes on Click here to enlarge

    I believe you can order it in any of the current available HSV colours...

    The fusion orange colour is not orange as such - it's the same colour that was featured on the last CV8Z Monaros and VZ onwards HSV's - it's just a little lighter/more golden than tiger mica Click here to enlarge
