Default what should i choose?

ok i have the choice to either get a vs slr 5000 manual hsv, black, lowered, 19's for 13,000 or a wh stato champane colour on bags gen3, 19's for 20,000 both are very nice cars but im not sure what one i should choose...i prefer the sound of the 5ltr i think they sound beefier than a gen3, plus manual vs auto, oh and the stato has grey leather interior too...

I would go for the SLR if its in good condition...V8 manual, black with 19's, now that would look nice and be so much fun to drive.

Yeh but it's still a stock 5L, it's not even HSV AFAIK, just a dealer option pack on the SS.

Confirmed - 5L Exec with some stickers, not even an SS though... no LSD..

Exactly my thoughts...

Is the extra $7g a problem? If not go the WH. If you want to stick to the VS shape go the HSVs.

Charg'd Anyone with a brain wouldn't buy a car that's had bags etc done = Modified, Possibly dodgy, Also you don't know what's wrong with it if it has problems.

I'd prefer buying a stocko ls1 stato & doing it myself if i had the money..

I'm with ray.. Ick at buying a pre modified=thrashed car...

Cheers

Not all pre-modified cars are thrashed.

for me it would be more of a case of not thrashed but more TRASHED. Bad work possibily that would cost thousands of dollars to repair.
