I know how a VE looks like

Yeah but a VN Saloon car isnt exactly a standard road car is it.

G'day ppls,

I dont know if any1 notice but the ve tail lights have a somewhat a 380 (magna replacement) look! and the front end doesnt look as big and bulky (enuff) to shove a v8 in! The front seem to be too small, i think the bulk went to the rear of the car! But thats just me!

Not exactly but close, I think the production cars would be allowed similar suspension mods. The group A brakes would help a V6 VN

Yeah it's small hey, but the VN was supposed to run the Nissan six so it's got a couple foot of wasted space in front of the engine. The gen 3/4 is pretty short, it'll fit, I still don't like the lights running right up over the panel. If holden ever reads this please think about changing those!

Was talking to a mate that works for holden yesterday. Doesn't look anything like the torana concept according to him. But he said its definately heading euro.

Three different guys from Holden all saying it looks different , the spy pictures look like a sedan version of the Torana with a more sedate/silly front end. Either way I look at it right now it looks deformed but I'm hoping it will improve. I don't understand how Holden have taken a platform that looked so wide and low on every single concept from all the different makers and made it so ugly? I was playing with the spy pictures in gimp and no matter what you do to it, it still looks weird

 

[nicholasjoe]

kinda looks similiar to the BA XT front end :S
