Max power-to-weight is 125kw per ton.
VT Series 1 Clubby - 108kw per ton
VS Exec 5.0lt - 114kw per ton
VY S V6 - 97kw per ton

These are all correct except the clubby as I dont have an exact weight, I based it on 1800kg.

Not trying to Knock you Mate but your 15 Why you buying a car now ?? best off saving your money and waiting til you can drive ! for the price of those cars in two years they would have become Cheaper.
and if your not talking about buying now then why not wait another 2 years for this thread eh ?

Personally by time you get your license you will prob be limited to a 4cyl.
If it were me I would look for a nice V6 VS Berlina or Calais. Spend some money on some rims, lowered, stereo and maybe extractors and exhaust and have fun cruising.
