    I own one and a VP SS. The VP SS's are harder to come by then the VN SS's however finding one in decent condition is another challenge all together.

    Yep there is ALOT od VN SS's in Melbourne and not much anywhere else, there's a couple of VP SS's somewhat local to me and only one VN SS at the most. Liek they say VP Calais is jsut as rare, but none of them are as anywhere near as rare as a IRS 5L Exec ::P

    just buy a stock 5L 5speed and put the body kit on it

    why paint a genuine SS just to rip the the interior out to go custom and the genuine factroy 3 colours (red, white n grey) to paint it 'crazy'. plus rip the sports FE2 suspension out to fit the 20's

    It's no longer an SS when you take the interior out n paint her it's just a body kit, engine n trans

    so atlas grey is most common colour ? damn. I was lookin round for yonks for a manual but i couldnt find one that wasnt rooted. SO i will convert mine later on, i think most of them were auto it was all i could find really. So i settled for one that was painted a few years back but its auto and no stickers tidy inside i guess its a good base considering how most of them have ended up.
