What the hell have they done to it. Looked so tough then they went and destroyed the look completely.

Loving the interior, but it's too over the top. And I hate myself for saying it. Less is sometimes more, take a look at the VX Clubby, in my opinion one of the best looking holdens ever (right behind the VX GTS Coupe) there is nothing but what is needed to make it look tough as nuts and set it apart from the standard car. The first E series HSV's are very sexy but instead of re-designing the exterior, HSV have just seemed to add more unneeded crap. Go back to the blueprint of taking a commodore and toughening it up, stop with all the ricer **** and pimp trinkets.

I can take it or leave it. I want to know why HSV have to go so "over the top" with the appearance, interior trim and colours. They have gradually become more and more weird with each successive model. Look at the European super sedans like the AMG's, M Series and Audis - they have mumbo, refinement, quality and big price tags. Sure, the VE is cheap(ish) by comparison, but why does it have to look cheap?

If HSV really wanted to upgrade the perceived quality of the cars, instead of just upping the grunt and funny body bits, why not redesign some of the cheap interior plastics to elevate the cars above Holden standards inside? I think the pre VE HSV's were more balanced in appearance than the current design.

I think its butt ugly to be truthful. The rims are horrendous, and the front & rear bumpers totally complete the horror package. VE1 is much better IMO. Time for HSV to get rid of the uni graduate styling gurus and get back to what looks good. It ain't hard.
