Vz Calais V8

Hey guys, after nearly 4 years of having a Vy V6 i've finally upgraded to a Vz Calais V8. After looking for awhile at some vy ss and vz ss i finally saw this.

Put on the statesman indicators today of my old vy and also removed the mudflaps

Looks good man. I have a v6 one in the same colour. The suspension looks to be standard. If you were to lower it I wouldn't go any lower than SL as it will become impractical for everyday use. Also what do you think of the standard sound system? I think its fairly good for a 10 year old car.

Looks good, went to look at this wednesday afternoon but it was already gone... What wheels are you thinking of putting on?

I was planning on putting in some king SL's, plenty low enough for everyday use. There's a little bit of a rattle from the parcel subs.

i drove past there Tuesday and picked her up, i was thinking of supersports or vz clubby rims.

The paint is immaculate and especially the interior, credit to the old fella for looking after it so well.
