Thats nearly a year old mate...

This is really giving me the ****s, another useless thread in the News/Updates section. This crap should be posted in the Pub section, where im pretty sure it WAS posted about 8-9 months ago.

Plus, the power figures for that are overrated. Its an auto. The W427 would destroy it on a track. Its slower than the W427 in every aspect, 0-100...1/4 mile... 80-120km/h... So how is it beating Holden at their own game?

w427 has full factory warranty, premium brakes, manual box, proggramable suspenion,
better diff. the list goes on.

It's $35,000 more than the CSV option with a very long list of advantages.

To people with a spare 150k, im sure the 35 grand more for the W427 is an easy choice especially when you consider the W427 is going to be a collectors peice.

that gts will be worth a couple more grand then a normal one in a few years, and no difference in about 10, wait to see the price of a w427 in 10 years,

plus the car has had every thing changed to suit the 7ltr, where as csv just dropped it in which would throw out all the dynamics of the car,

Maybe you should have titled your thread as "Sorry, whats that? Someone beat HSV at their own game?"

[Grennan]

I really dont see how its beating HSV at all, they are using a HSV chassis and using an engine from General Motors. If they wanted to beat HSV at their own game theyd be using their own engines and making their own dam car.
