I also checked out the new VE HSV range last weekend, still don't like them...

The GTS front end is awful, probably didn't help that the one I was looking at was red...

It definitely looks way to busy in terms of holes and slits and openings everywhere on the front end, it's just overdone and since alot are non-functional, in my eyes it also cheapens up the look...you'd definitely have to get one of these in a dark colour to help hide all of it IMHO.

Senator variant looked 'ok', just...

I always wanted to buy myself a VK Group A but they were way to expensive for me when they were 1st released and later on when I could afford one, I lost interest...luckily for me a good friend of mine at the time did get one and I had the pleasure of being able to ride in one back in their hey day - they were one of the most potent and revered street cars of their day, it was always exciting to get out in it !!!

I also really liked the VL Calais...

I still can't get over these VE 'mock ups' can't see anything beyond a fake-ster image whenever I look at them, as for aesthetically speaking I also find it not very appealing, the bonnet hump and boot spoiler along with the wheels make the basic VE shape look ridiculously ugly IMHO...

please do!!!! hq if possible.
as for vl, i never liked them, but the calais was definately the best looking of the bunch.
the walkinshaw being the worst. ricer and bogan in one package.
