true any plans for it? ive had mine for 2 and a half years and only put in a new sound system haha
bet daddy loves lending you his car.
well done for buying it, be it your dad or you that bought it, but it sounds like your trying to brag about purchasing a ve commodore on your p's... its not that special haha P's on VE's are so common, myself included.
Yo.
Ve's seem to have really bad depreciation don't they? so many young people driving them now who have half decent jobs

Yeah they probably do ignition, particularly sedans...the utes seem to hold a bit more value
Yo.
what a load of crap Utes hold value like crap....
people buy them because they cant afford the 4 doors and back seat.
or they think that a Ute goes faster!!!
I love these hypothesis people on here think of!!!
And to the OP ROFLMFAO i'm so jealous i wish i was just like you...... and i wish i had my p's and a SV6..........
Calm down above
The VE utes are awesome ever think that people may like them because they are more into utes or a tradie
I don't think you have any right saying ohh they can't afford sedans that's none of ur business

what you talking about you havnt even got one your in the wrong place.....
actually jace looking at price comparisons of used VE utes and the equivelant sedans, utes hold their value a little better than sedans (besides the stock omega ute). i thought it has been the case for a while now
A VE? I Got a sv6 sedan
i think considering utes are 4-5k cheaper brand new i think utes hold their value better.. and its really just a preference thing.. if you need a family car or carry a few people usually you get a sedan, if u want a work car to carry tools but a nice weekend car u get a ute.. op not too bad.. u should lower it though..
Utes are defiantly holding there value better a quick search on the net will prove that....as for them going quicker.....that is also a possibility as they should be lighter than the sedan/wagon power to weight....simple physics so settle down jace75

wasnt trying to brag at all i was mean the look of the car. gotta love how people just assume its your dads car, and how because your a P plater your some sort of idiot who s only here to show boat
I refer to my post on what p**ses you off etc.... Last time i checked this wasn't a dating website so your age is irrelevant to your car.
Anway...
If it's yours, then well done.. a nice car at 17 is something to be proud of. If you haven't already, get rid of that fugly bonnet protector, it will cause more harm than good. Replace your rear lights with SSVs. Apart from that, nice motor, top colour (i have the SSV in Phantom)
Yeah i know its not a dating site im new and didnt know what to say.. Bonnet protector is gone so thanks for that
I lol'd so damn much @ this whole thread.
It's one thing to show off a car you busted your balls for.
It's another to brag about a car that you got financed because you can't afford it.
I paid cash for my '07 Lumina. I could have got a loan for a brand new SV6 or V6 Calais.
I don't regret it for a second.
You're too young to be owing money.
Pull your head in.
Where does it say i have the car financed
In my opinion, utes will hold thier value more, its the main reason i didnt get one (couldnt afford it). Also my first car is a suped up ve so i dont think its very special or unique that you have a ve for your first car. Its a nice piece of kit though. Still got a long way to go if your going for a unique look. go with the ssv lights on both ends, get a hsv exhaust, extractors, walkinshaw cold air intake, better wheels, bee sting antennae. worked for me anyway
Yeah i was look at getting some DRL tail lights they look pretty nice, the exhaust is full GTS from the headers back, the extractor and cold air intake will be done when im allowed to have a car with over 200 kw as for the rims i like them just want to get it lowered and the bee sting is on its way. and Thanks
I'm FAR from being an accountant/financial advisor, but I doubt you'd be affording this @ the age of 17.
We're probably talking 20-25k$ for this bad boy, depending on the k's.
I'm assuming the Bank of Dad is open for business? And who's name is this insured in?
I pray for you, sir. This will go pear shaped, fast!
Back on topic, sweet ride.
Haha I have been busting my ass every holidays since i was 12 working on a banana farm the pay is good and my parents bought the car and i paid all of the money back bar $10000 that they said they would put towards it so i Paid for the other $30000, Its insured in my parents name because it cant be in mine.
Thanks it has been my pride and joy since i bought her
