    Why i got a new ss series 2

    I looked at the XR6T as a competitor to the VFII but the lack of features and cheap, tacky interior turned me off. Very pleased with my decision also :)

    Pleasant surprise

    I know where I will be going for servicing now! :)

    Annoying **** with VF

    I watched a couple of interesting videos RE: the Ceramic 9H protection. I was amazed what they put it through and what it stood up to. I have already found myself a local supplier that can apply it. Best it to get it soon ASAP after getting the car me thinks :)

    VF SSV Series 2 - Blackout Packs - Does anyone have any pics?

    After reading this kit I'm actually glad I didn't go for the blackout kit when I ordered my slipstream wagon. The chrome really does suit it more than the black. After thinking about it a bit more I reckon I'm gonna call up and add the bottom armor though, I'm currently used to a work 4x4 and I...

    That's awesome thanks! There must be a lot of HSV owners that have these hanging about after upgrade.

    This is interesting. Bigjim92 is $400 about the going rate for a full set of HSV cats/headers? If my thinking is right, does that mean any HSV header/cat set from April 2008 work fine (the introduction of the LS3) or will if have to be a Gen-F set?

    JTmofo's point is very valid. My wife will be driving the SS more than I, I have a run about to bash to work in. This means I dont get moaned at like I did with my VE SS because it was "too loud and annoying" when just driving it like he said, to the shops. But I now know I can hit the button...

    The Research and Development Thread!!

    Sorry, that was a terribly worded reply. Yes thats what I was getting at. The VF software seems to be similar same across the board and that certain features are either on or off. I have seen a couple of companies who have managed to unlock certain features on the VF Clusters. I was curious as...

    Interesting stuff. So is the cluster software stored separately on the cluster itself?

    Just out of interest, have you seen this youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/GTPprix No real info is given which is a shame.

    AV input?

    Ah that's interesting thanks. Hopefully someone with a vf2 can confirm

    AV input?

    hi all, I am aware some VFs came with a eve player ability of some sort? Has anyone ever successfully fed an audio/video signal into the my link display? Thanks.

    What deal did you get for your vf series 2????

    That sounds like a really good deal to me. I paid just over that for an SS wagon (few options inc) with no additional warranty or included servicing.

    Ah ok thanks. Learn something every day :)

    Is this the same as I would of had in my VE SSV? Excuse my ignorance. My knowledge relating to all the different models and specs available in the LS based engines is very minimal.

    So what's the engine model of all the series 1 VF SS'??

    MyLink update?

    I'm seriousy considering reverting back to Android after all the horror stories with mylink and iOS phones. I guess i'll wait and see how it performs. I'n all honesty I just intend using a portable hard drive in the USB port for all the music needs

    VF 2 exhaust

    Worth noting those seem to be VFI figures with the 6L LS2. I'm not sure if the same gains would be had on the VFII LS3? I am no expert, but I assume those modifications would yield around the same gains? Thats almost 70hp, nothing to be sniffed at. I really like to note of the standard VFII, I...

    Our MY15 SV6 Storm Sportwagon

    That's awesome, I'm stoked about that. I didn't go for the SSV due to the $7k additional cost in the wagon, especially when things like wheels are being changed and the wife didn't like the full leather seats after our current car kept burning her haha. The wheel was one of the things I really...

    Our MY15 SV6 Storm Sportwagon

    Thats an awesome looking car! Your choice of parts just go together so well! I too have upgraded to the paddle shift of my wagon which is due early march, I wasn't aware you got the flat bottomed wheel with the upgrade too! Stoked about that :)

    What deal did you get for your vf series 2????

    On that note the dealer owner rang me a few days ago and told me he had managed to grab what was supposed to be a nitrate wagon and change it to my slipstream choice before it was built otherwise we were looking at mid May. Not sure how much of that was true. That was when I got my first week of...

    Mines quoted for March 2nd delivery at the moment.

    What deal did you get for your vf series 2????

    Nav is standard in the SSV and RL. Not available in the SS. Not that I would ever use it. I would have certainly gone SSV or RL if funds allowed but I'm still confident I'm gonna be happy! When the mods begin it isn't gonna matter

    What deal did you get for your vf series 2????

    So would I be right in saying that in the VFII SS Wagon I have ordered. I cannot fully turn off the traction control? :bomb:

    What deal did you get for your vf series 2????

    For me the lack of the Bose system in the Wagon is a bit of a mystery. I'm at a loss as to why they could not include it. I did stutter at difference in price, I can only assume its the lower numbers built. I've optioned the paddle shift on mine, and the wife preferred the SS seats over the...

    VF Holden Commodore Issues and Faults

    Could of just unhooked the battery and ran the car directly from the jump pack? This might have given you power to release the doors :)

    What deal did you get for your vf series 2????

    I had my dealer over the website discrepancy. It was showing the VFI pricing right up to 4/5th Jan when I ordered but it quoted the VFII car and specs. They were not aware it had not been updated. JTmofo, I honestly couldn't see the extra $7k in a SS Wagon vs an SSV. Wheels are being replaced...

    For sure mate I am interested in the updates. I am a tech head by trade so all this **** fascinates me. Would be keen to get involved as things progress if required :)

    I saw a guy on here has been told April! I ordered mine around a week ago and got 2nd March as a tentative date today. He said that will change we get closer to it though.

    What deal did you get for your vf series 2????

    I have always had Manuals. MR2's, Supras, Skylines and such forth. Then I grew up, had kids, got fat and bought a 2010 VE SSV when I first came to Aus and LOVED IT. The fact you can throw it in drive, go to work, go shopping with screaming kids all without effort, but bang it to manual "mode"...

    I've just ordered an SS Sportwagon also in Slipstream! I'll list here what I paid and with what options to possibly help others gauge the deals in the future. Vehicle price total including everything: $54,550 Prestige paint: free Paddle shift : free Boot lip protector: free Full tank of fuel...

    VFII SS Wagon - What should I be paying?

    Cheers for the offer. Have ordered through Holden after squeezing them for Free paddle shift, Free boot lid protector, and a full tank of fuel on delivery! I have been updated with a possible 3 week delivery. Like a kid waiting for xmas!
