Went down to holden today to find out about getting a VT / VX for myself and what was in the showroom teasing me to come have a look....a VZ SS Crewman and an exec VZ and an SV6 so of course i had to ask the dealer if i could pop the bonnet on the SV6 and have a look so here are the photos.
Seems as if they have finally opted for a change on the engine cover for the LS1 (Gen3) although it is the same engine cover of that on the new C6 vette' that has the LS2. Anyway I have to say i only had a brief encounter with both but the SV6 is a lot nicer in the flesh than in photos off the internet

Lol you all dont trust a digital system to help you out. The car aint running windows you know. Besides you still retain manual control of the gearbox (and yes that applies to the auto).

Lmao, the comment about Windows was classic. Apparently BMW makes a car that runs Windows on its ECU. Remind me not to get into a BMW. :p
