MY16 Jungle Green SSV Redline

[Super Coach]

Sorry I haven't got the video up yet on the 2016 SS easy exit feature (as requested on the SS Forum). It's hard to capture what it does without a helper. I'll ask the wife tonight to help out but the AUS Spec VFII's really aren't missing much. Honestly having 'J*sus Handles in the front head liner would be a bigger help to hauling ones arse in and out without crushing side bolsters.

Onto your Jungle Green order - what did you end up going for with options?
PBM Roof?
PBM Spoiler?
High Wing?
Black grill surrounds?

Out of all the JG SSV Redlines you've seen, approximately what proportion of them have the high wing on the boot?

Thats ok about the video, recently had a hire car Caprice V which had the easy exit feature. Its pretty good that it just does it all for you, pitty it isnt on the Redline, would save the side bolster getting worn. My order details are above. I think there is more of the lip spoiler ordered on the Jungle Green than the high winged spoiler from what I have seen.

Wow that's quite the booty SC.
Can you please share the part # for the red centre caps and wher you sourced the SS shark fin aerial from?
You obviously don't want to get caught out in years to come with parts unavailability.

So some exciting news about my car, got a production update from my contact at HVO.

Holden had a target build date for my Redline as Wednesday 31/8/16. I got word that my car has already been built! It had passed through body shop on Wednesday 24/8/16 with no defects or rework, so body work is great and it was in paint shop overheads as of 25/8/16. Hard to say whether it’s been painted or not, but I have ordered the optional black roof and was told the car goes through once painted all green, then before clearcoat is applied it is taken offline, the whole car gets masked up and then the car is fed back in to get the roof painted black and then it gets its clearcoat.

As they no longer work a Friday shift at HVO, it looks to be that my car maybe finished late Monday afternoon. My contact will get back to me on Monday to confirm where it is as it depends on the ARS (Automatic Retrieval System) and where it is programmed to slot into the production line. So it looks like peoples cars are built a week prior to the target build date we have all been given by Holden.

Exciting times and sleepless nights ahead for me. It is due to arrive at the dealer on Friday 2/9/16.
