Haha wow. Miami V8 is a fantastic engine. The GTS is making the power it has quoted, 430 at the engine would equate to roughly 330-350rwkw yeh? But it seems the GT-F is totally above expectations!! GTS is still better package though. But you're paying for it, $15k dearer then the GTF.
O for sure the GTS is a better package, just funny HSV's marketing spin was the 'most powerful production Australian car'.............and it's not:p

Based on both manufacturers claimed power output it is. It appears in a certain set of circumstances the Falcon can make more power however the chances of replicating that for most real world driving is limited I'd suspect. Either way - they are both stupid fast for what is essentially a taxi underneath :)

The modern Falcodores are much better than the old hoon cars like the GTHO and the L34 that were crude cars with too much power.
