    Default 20K to spend on ???????

    Ok peoples- I have $20 000 (maybe a bit more) to spend on a new car and can't really decide what I want and I could really use some opinions. I'm stuck deciding between a VY/Z SS or a VX Clubsport or Senator.

    Do you have a preference in transmission? If not, maybe a VY/VZ V8 Calais (as they are all auto).

    Out of the ones you've listed, VX Senator or VZ SS.

    Regarding the transmission I'm after an auto. The brother in law has a VY Calais and I don't want the same car as him.

    Use the money you got from the ute, plus the 20 grand, and buy a VX Monaro, they are hot.

    if going ls1 go the latest you can find less problems.otherwise a vx clubby can get a very good one for less than 20 but the vx senator all te ones around 20 have a lot of k's
