Oh dear...SV6 wannabe :(

Spotted this today in a car-yard.

The person that did this should be shot.

Any comments welcome..

Apologies about the poor quality pic, was shooting into the sun.

Tom/WA proud owner of a 'real' SV6.

lol thats a pretty poor mock up of an SV6...

I don't get it buddy. Whats the big deal. Seams fine to me, but i can only see one pic

[1991_Vn2nV]

I don't get it buddy. Whats the big deal. Seams fine to me, but i can only see one pic

Its an exec with all the exec goodies, but it has a wing and an SV6 badge. Nothing else SV6 on it...wheels, kit, lights, engine etc.

[mynuvu]

OK cheers, I only saw the pic from the rear. not really into the "newer" commies so I don't know about all that buisiness. Why do people try to put the con on like that. sell it like it is i say

[daveb8]

interesting how it has black behind the number plate....vz execs have paint back there, the sports models have the black plastic like that. its clearly an exec otherwise

also does it annoy anyone else how most dealers put their crappy bit of black plastic with their name on it around every number plate they get their hands on? soo tacky

[Super Coach]

would it be wrong to remove a VZ SV6 badge and replace it with a VE SV6 badge? just looking at the badges the VE looks better styled with the S like the VT was when released. not like the VZ with its awful straightline S design

[1991_Vn2nV]

Nah that'd b alright man, its still an SV6

[EXCESSV]

yeah...absolutely annoying...
after i bought it i said i would like them off when i come pick up saturday and they said no worries....
guess what they were still there.....so i started the car up to get warm and with the salesman and his boss next to me i ripped them off....handed them to them and said see ya

[Super Coach]

i'd like to get myself and SV6 OR SS VZ that is and change the badges with the VE ones that look hell sweet and aint stickers like the VS or just an oval shape like VT. thought vx where abit sparkly for my liking. but each to there own what are others ppl's thoughts? i agree the advert which goes around the number plate total rubbish

[Stretchomatic]

i love the VX S and SS badge, it's slick as, the VY/Z ones suited the angular shape of them, i like the VE ones alot.

maybe the owner thought it stood for 'Stock V6'...

[twb1979]

Here's another pic of an SV6 that the same car-yard had parked near the first car..



Can anybody spot what's missing off this genuine SV6?

Looks like somebody farked up big-time!!

Total knobs!

[NOGEN 3]

As far a stuff ups at holdens go(it's a good 1 tho') A run of exec's went thru with FEII b4 the other 1/2's brother noticed as a factory operator.
4 that he got promoted to supervisor....
Maybe it's a whole sv6 boot, just happened 2 be the same colour?

[Super Coach]

twb1979 i looked at this pic for like 2 mins couldnt pick anything looks like a real SV6 from the outisde only thing missing is the alloytech badges on the side. can u please say just what is wrong with this SV6????

[BLACKVZSV8]

Its got no wing !

[twb1979]

Well done BLACKVZSV8!

I think for whatever reason mixed the boot-lids up.

The first shot clearly has an SV6 rear boot and the 'genuine' SV6 has an exec one!

Wankers!!

In that second pic, the bonnet doesn't line up with the front guard - BIG TIME!

But yeah, I hate try hards - especially Executives etc with SS bits on them! Aaaaargh!

[Willz]

The previous owner could have always had it removed

i personally want a bob tail lip similar to that off a VY/Z senator

also north city holden have some funny ideas on prices of sv6's too

apparently they wanted 1000k more for a turismo colored sv6 because the sales man said it was the first of that colour he had ever had in the yard

Exactly right, might have had an accident.

[davey g-force]

Exactly right, might have had an accident.

I notice it's got a "SOLD" sign on it. Some idiot bought it like that!

[twb1979]

North Shitty Holden sources all the ex- Brightwater Nursing Homes and Rocky Bay SV6's hence they all have about 17-18000kms on the clock.

Some joker probably mixed the read lids up on those two VZ's....

I agree...that SV6 has definately had some panel damage as their was paint over-spray in a few places. Looking at the pic the panels do look a bit ajar.

$1000 extra what a tool.. must of been his first day on the 'job'.. They had a couple in their yard last week in turismo.

[EXCESSV]

north city are a bunch of tools full stop.....
had so many arguments and have stopped counting how many times i told them to F&CK OFF.......

the only decent dealer in perth, if thats possible, is city motors.....stand by them, especially the parts guys..top blokes

[Super Coach]

i dont think it would have come out the factory like that with a different boot. im sure it is either removed. has anyone seen a back picture of the car to see what is going on with the SV6 where can you see the over spray of paint on the car

im currently looking to sell my sv6(its auto i want manual) and ive been looking everywhere for a manual and getting prices etc. at campbelltown australian fleet sales they wanted $37990 for a 04 sv6. i nearly fell over when i saw it, and when i asked the dealer if it was a typo he said no with a confussed look on his face, i just walked away laughing.

04 sv6 from a dealer should be $27000 absolute extreme max for a good one considering there getting them from auctions for $20000
