    Agree, IMHO the Calais look the best as they have a much nicer more rounded front end, without all the awkward looking square/angular shapes of the regular front end, neater fog lights and neater rear spoiler, if I had to get a VE or this newer variant that's the one I'd choose...

    Yes yes, im glad im not alone, Id have a dark grey Calais V with 20” wheels, some tints and a slight lowering, would look better than any HSV. Shame they dont do one in manual.

    I really can’t see how they sell so many HSV’s, I see more Clubsports around Auckland than SS and Calais, it must be the badge and image.

    Looks like that image on the previous page (silver sedan) is pretty close in regards to the rear bumper treatment...

    Interesting that they'll be offering performance enhancements...

    Hmmm, interesting looks like LED DRL's and adaptive or cornering headlights are going to be fitted on everything soon...

    Wonder how long it'll take for LED headlights to become common place and replace Xenon HIDS and standard halogens ??

    Toyota is already using them on the Prius MK3, Audi on the R8 V10 and offers it as a $10,000 option on other models WTF Click here to enlarge
