I just got back from the Drive Day.
FU.CK ME SIDEWAYS!!! THIS IS A FU.CKING AMAZING CAR!!!!!
Forget everything u know about Commodore.
First car i drove was a V6 Statesman. Haven driven the Current WL many times i'm used to driving a car where you are always aware of its size and weight. The WM does not feel like the huge car that it is. The V6 engine is no longer a wheezy breathless harsh sounding piece of sh!t. Its got a good induction growl with a good exhaust note too. The Active Select being in the gear shifter is great. The Suspension was very good as was the Steering. The steering was much much more direct than anything commodore/statesman has ever had.
Next was an Auto SS. WOW! The 6 speed is such a difference to the current 4 speeder behind the V8. Its nice and smooth to shift and both it and the 5 speeder were quick to react to inputs via Active Select. The note on the V8's is just amazing too.
Next was a V6 Calais, which was superb to drive. Like i said, forget everything that you know about commodore.
Also drove and Auto SV6.
Then came the slalom test. This was my opportunity to test the Omega with the 4 speed and also the ESP (although i tested this many times in the other cars going around the track he he he). The upgrades they made to the 4 speed box is nothing short of amazing and the way the car handeled the test is a credit to Holden.
Anyway, i give the car 3 thumbs up (yes i am a freak)
