    Default Had some ideas, know they won't be considered but had to post :P

    Hey guys,

    Just realised that the purpose of the VE thread will probably change as the new model is owned by people and they discuss it and the mods they do to them and they end up being like any other model forum, had the idea that there be a new forum made called "Future models" or something, always a place for the speculative and fact posting that's been happening and enjoyed with the leadup to VE, but then for other models/revisions upcoming.

    Also maybe VY and VZ forums should be merged into one now that the VE is out as they fall into the same criteria as the other models that are merged (same basic shape sort of)

    Ahhh I dunno, I need to stop thinking

    I agree about the VY VZ forums being merged into one now that the VE thread will become a normal car forum...

    I think the reason the VY and VZ are seperate as they have totally different engines... but so do the VR and VS.... *shrug*
    Some people say less talk more action, i say more torque less traction.

    I think VT-VZ should be one section like VB-VK. I know the VT is different to the VZ in allot of ways but is similar in just as many, just like the VB-VK LOL

    I can't even tell what's a VY or VZ from a distance.. Of course it's easy with the bonnet open, but they look the same to me..

    i do belive that the current layout is due to design and some comon design they all share, i.e. the vb-vk section shares the same motor, and similar body shape
    vl is a model to it's own
    vn-vp is the same type
    vr-vs is the same body shape, different motors,
    vt-vx well the vx is a refined vt if you ask me
    vy well it could prob be merged with the vz same body shape, different motors
    and the ve it's a model all to it's own, shares nothign in comon with any model descriped here, bit like the vl, a law untill it's own. ill run it past darren

    idea squashed,

    ecotec was a variant of the buick 3.8. nothign realy new about it
    alloytec is a totaly new platform, as a result, the vz will be on it's own. if anything, after a little while, vz and ve might be merged into the one forum
