    Im always right

    Its the same power rating as all the other VP's, and is the lightest, therefore has the best power to weight ratio. So its the fastest.

    Wouldnt that be with all models??

    Well.. no so much the newer ones seeing as there are 2 different v6s now... but up untill about VY i suppose?

    Seeing as the exec is always the lighter option

    But wait... There's more!!


    But that's not all!!!

    I'm surprised the VS's aren't the quickest, I think they have the best power/ weight ratio, I guess its the low down torquey buick engine in the VP's (also VN/VR) that make it quicker.

    The VN executive 5 liter manual is the fastest thing you can get from the factory in the VB-VS range followed closely by the VN SS which is executive based, they VP's are similar but the VN's headers give them a little advantage. But yeah all the executives are the quickest models, by the time you get to the Calais and Statesmans they are quite alot slower than the go fast/budget models. Which is why if your main interest is going fast you should allways start with the base model, Holden used to know this but they forgot somewhere along the line. The old VH SS never even came with a radio as standard because they were super light weight spec
