Default SS or Clubsport?

My budget was $30,000.

I was thinking of a VY clubby (2002) or a VX-R8 (2002) but was turned off by the $3000 per year insurance premium.

Instead, I bought a SS VY Series 2 (2004) and got the clubsport kit put on.
Insurance is $1,200 and it's still under warantee.

Other mods: 18" chrome rims, 2.5" cat back exhaust.

Would anyone choose an SS over a clubby?

The only thing better are the badges on the SS!

Personally I'd take the cash...

With it I'd buy a VS S/C Calais then spend $6000 on the motor and put a HSV I just ate one sticker on the back window......and still have $10,000 in my pocket.

Nice looking SS. Havent seen any with a clubby kit yet, nice idea hehe.
