VY Commodore wagon
Time has come to finally get myself a car to be proud of!

As the title says im tossing up between a E3 VE HSV R8 tourer or a VF2 redline stationwagon.

Has anyone owned both or gone from one to the other?
I like the VF interior and features but I like the HSV because its a HSV and just looks so tough!

The VF2 being the last V8 commodore is a huge appeal how ever I see the E3 holding its value just as well. A VF HSV is out of my price range.

This will be my everyday car and pride and joy. Towing the odd motorbike trailer. Wanting a stationwagon because they are just so practical and not as common as a sedan.

Interested to hear peoples thoughts and personal preferences and why.

Cheers!!!

get the VF if you can get it at the right price, nicer drive than the VE

Towing a bike and in the car from the mud, in from the snow, in from the sand, with your dog, with your nephew’s melting ice cream... VF interior is a poofter’s handbag made of fake suede and mylar shiny bits.
There is no fricken difference in ride, that’s all wank. Test drive the two, stock VF is quieter, VF2 is detuned and much less potent.
E3 HSV is the pick, more aggressive in a few ways that count.
