The new VC yes or no?

[Cordelia calais]

Was reading in the Herald sun about the new VC commodore they are going to bring out. Peter Champion is spearheading the project with Patterson Cheney in vermont and they are trying to keep it as original as possible inc HDT striping and Irmsche - look wheels, my question is, is it right? i am kind of from the old school and think there is nothing better than the original esp when this car is going to be priced at over $65k, I understand about doing a "tribute" and the car looks awesome but what do other j.c members think?

[Astranomical]

You mean the HDT New Generation cars?

I like the idea, but personally, I think they look wrong, wrong, wrong.

[TVR-190]

the blac one looks ok, the rest look dog ugly

[Cordelia calais]

Would you pay $65 for one personally I would rather pay the $20 the car dealership wants for the VB ( I think it was ) that they have in original condition with only 20,000 on the clock in Maidestone.

The car companies are struggling to sell cars as it is, then they decide to waste money produces overpriced rubbish like this..

I dont see the point.

The point is to sell the cars that they otherwise couldnt sell.

[soop]

But they were selling?

These abortions are not.

What annoys me the most is the fact car prices are going up screwing over the tax payers who keep them in business. That is all that annoys me about Ford, Toyota and Holden.

obviously you havent read into these have you.
these are being done by HDT (Peter Champion) not Holden,
and are available like the older HDTs in different group packages,
as for overpriced rubbish, im guessing you dont like the HSVs either.

everyone has an opinion and either likes them or hate them, reminds me of the walky when they were new, a lot of people hated them (and still do) and wouldnt buy them, but those who own one of them are sitting on something worth a small fortune, will these car be worth something in the future who knows?






and yes if i had the cash i would buy one.

[Full Spectrum]

Nice if they added a supercharger to the Sv6. 250kw or something.

[wrx884]

i like that grill and bonnet buldge on the red car just posted the but the rest looks poo

[minux]

God...i just ate dinner, now i need to barf..please never post those ugly things again...

Seriously, why would anyone waste money on these cars? Buy an ex-demo SS, have it tuned, cammed, exhausted, upgrade the brakes and walk away with a car that is as good as the above, cheaper, yet doesn't look something that escaped the abortion bucket.

[Lumps of cheese]

Not a fan at all. Minux's idea is the better way to go.

[quick308]

yuk those cars look terrible

[greenfoam]

Once in a while I see outstanding fails and I think to myself ?ARE YOU SERIOUS?. This is one of those moments. If you wanted a fake HDT car you could do alot better for alot less money just buying a early Commodore and doing it right, at least then it would look decent

[tommo82]

Ugly, ugly, ugly.

[System]

you CANT mix an older generation kit onto a newer generation car, i'm sorry but that is the truth- saw one of them at summernats... just looks out of wack, an angular spoiler/bonnet scoop, with a smooth, round car... naa dont see the good in it sry

I stand by the overpriced rubbish looking at that..
I noticed to supercharged variant is P.O.A too scary to advertise... lol..

its an SS with a body kit and terrible wheels.. and some ricer stickers.. woopeee.

Oh and they are ugly as fark

[minux]

Because HSV's do not look like spastics on speed. They have a history evolving through car models not holding to looks of the 80's.

so are the old ones, now look at wat they r worth

[minux]

The old ones had pedigree behind them, the new ones have pedigree(pal) after it comes out a dogs arse.

Oh and for the record, the old ones are just as ugly.

[andyman]

im sorry but that just looks plain terrible, i cant say it any other way, the package is great but those wheels are just terrible for that car

[VS Omega]

It makes me nearly cry when I see VY clubby kits (ugly in general, even on a real VY clubby - my opinion) on early models. This makes me feel the same.
