    Default What would you buy

    Hi there, Just wanted some opinions I am going to be in the market for a Ute soon , I am able to spend between 35-40 grand. I have 20 grand cash and going to get a loan for the rest. I cannot make up my mind on what I would rather have so I thought a few opinions on here would be a good read. For the ammount i can spend I am either going to get a VE SS or SSV (would either be brand new or done ****all k's) or a VZ/VY Maloo (will oviously be used and try to find 1 with as low k's as possible) . I really like the new shape of the VE's but I have always wanted a Maloo, in the perfect world i would get a VE Maloo but oviously thats way outta my price range atm. I think power wise the Maloos are slighty more .. 297kw vs 270 kw .. Ive asked my mates and there all devided, 1 of my mates rekons the VZ Maloos look way more aggressive from the front end espically and he would rather 1 of them over a VE SS and with HSV u get a build number etc. . Any ideas? ta

    personally i would go with the maloo, i think theyre a bit of a cult car and look much nicer than the ssv.

    And The maloo will hold its value longer over the VE.
    The VZ has already lost its initial value, and its a HSV which hold there value alot more.
    Both are sexy cars, but everytime the bloke up the road drives past in his Maloo I'll always have a perve and orgasm over the sound.

    **** loaning the rest of the money!

    Spend your CASH on a VU SS or VY SS and then save $5000 cash again, spend that on tune exhaust cia maybe a cam set up and youll have a nice tuff ute on your hands. Loaning 20,000 is a bad move for a car mate specially when u already have enough for a LS1 ute

    If you ask me, save yourself 30 grand and get a HZ/WB. Lol.


    But, I would rather the VZ Maloo over the VE for sure!!!!

    If you wanna spend that sort of money, def go the VZ.
