    Default VE omega or VZ SV6

    I am buying a commie in the next 2 months and am trying to choose between these two cars as they are around the same price line so i have some questions

    1- Obviously the SV6 has more power then the VE omega, but is there much difference??

    2- Which one would you choose out of the two and why....because i realy want the vz sv6 for power reasons obviously but the VE looks realy hot...especially if i do it up

    thankss!

    Just bought a VE Omega 2009 model and i recon its just as good as the non sidi SV6's coz the power only misses out by 5 kw and you dont really feel it, take the ESC off and man ull be slidding it on uturns at 1/5 of acelorator travel distance ( sad part omega are not LSD)
    but i would recoment the omega over the sv6 coz theres alot more that you cann do to the omega to your liking
    hope this helped you can chek my car out in my signature link

    I own a VE but I personally think the SV6 Vz's look better. Also what model omega are you looking at? There's the 180kw (330nm) and 190kw (290nm) engines.

    Strange to hear that I was blown away at the difference between the 09 and the SIDI. I think its probably more to do with the 6 speed auto than the 5kW. Both nice cars to drive tho

    I went from a '91 Ford Laser to my '07 VE Lumina and can tell you now, this is a load of shit. To do 'full on drifts', you would probably have the ESC off, which is default on when you start the car.

    Stop being a douche.

    hard enough drifting in a SV6 VE, the omega's with 290nm of torque, almost no chance unless its wet.

    When I feel the back sliding a little when I take off around a corner, I ease off the throttle.
