Just back to the OP has everyone received there wheels now
Ordered one wheel( as a spare) almost a month ago now. Has not arrived and it is unlikely it ever will. The tracking number provided with the order confirmation does not work and they have not replied to the 3 emails sent over the last few weeks. I actually phoned HSV/Walkinshaw and left a message which, so far ,has not been replied to. So, I will seek a refund(through credit card) and purchase the wheel for an extra $180 through a dealer. Very underwhelming customer experience and a PITA but minor in the scheme of things. I get the feeling HSV/Walkinshaw has been hollowed out like Holden.

They are too busy putting stickers on VWs.

What's this a reference to?

I know they're converting those awful Yank trucks like RAM & Silverado & Canyonero, and ... hell, for Corvette they don't need to actually do ANYTHING do they? GMSV is HSV innit?

What are they doing with the dac-dacs?

I had to email twice and they finally replied.

The tracking number first sent also didn’t work. A proper DHL email comes when they have been sent.

Mine took around a month off the top of my head.

I didn't realise Walkinshaw Automotive Group was the old HSV. I thought the new GMSV was it. Confusing, no?

I'd seen adverts for the W580, I've even seen one parked in the neighbourhood.
Seems like they didn't touch the engine, so its literally a sticker pack. Much like older HSV sportcat.
