whats goin on at HSV??
i have no idea how long this has been around..but..
has anyone else noticed the countdown on the HSV website, saying "the biggest moment in HSV's first 20 years is coming.." its got about 23 days or something as of today..
anyone know or heard something i have no idea about? my quick calculations make it 9th or 10th of Oct, which is right before the start of the sydney motor show too.....

maloo ute is going to be nowhere near "the biggest moment in HSV's first 20 years"
it'll be the release of either the new engine (7L) or a new car, GTS-R or something

yeah my first thought was the maloo ute, but agreed..its not really that bigger deal..
ive heard a few ppl mention the LS7, and unless its a one off thing in something, like a GTS-R i couldnt really see HSV introducing a new engine when we just got a new engine not long ago... a few ppl have also mentioned the GTS-R, which could be verrrry interesting
ill do more detective work and see what i can find out

torana? that'd be holden not hsv
and it doesn't take a genious to figure out the torana was only a way to get peoples thoughts on the VE
darkvl - if thats true i was right in both ways woohoo 
edit:
Just read over on SC, a guy who apparantly works in HSV has said it is a GTS-R, but not the 7L, just an upgraded engine to 327kw, with the expensive option of a 370kw version

haha, and you seriously believe anything a dealer has to say. Sure theres an off chance he's right, but as soon as they open their mouth, i close my ears.
