Is anyone considering the NG commodore after their VF?

Yeah I’m only 46, need another 20 years before I’m beyond caring enough about what others think to be seen in a Corvette!

I found it interesting that you were happy to be seen in a Soul.

Friend of mine at work is buying a KIA Soul, he loved the fact it has a 7 year warranty. I didn’t know what it was so looked it up online and just confirmed what I thought, he has no taste in vehicles, it’s just fugly.

Barack Obumhole drives an (A)soul. Oh hang on, that’s getting political/off topic again oops! Anyway I’d rather a 3-cyl Daishitzu Sirion than (A)soul!

Inside a VN is not really bigger than a VZ and the VE-F has the fuel tank for the USA standards and the boot is not as good as a VN. what are you 7FT tall ? sitting in the back seat in the VE is only a bees whisker off the top of my head but a VN is fine. I just don't see the point of the VE being so big.

Got to agree with that, I had a VS from new, I think size wise they are great, about 1800mm wide same as most cars cars on the road today. The VS also had good deep boot with the spare wheel on the side (unlike the VT to VZ shallow boot with spare wheel under the floor). I had VK, VN and VP before the VS, all perfect size with 2 teenage kids and holiday trips upto Gold Coast from Sydney, never had any need for anything bigger. The VE/ VF is unnecessarily large to me. Another good thing with the older cars was also visibility, you could actually see out of them. VE/ VF is a fail in that regard, outward visibility is crap. On the upside the VE is a better looking car, I still have Poison Ivy VE SS and definitely prefer the look of the VE over the VS, but in it's day the VS looked OK.

^ I think the VE will hold-up better than VS has, in terms of appearance, wih time; basic proportions are right, the detail styling is only icing on the cake. VN wasn’t great, and VS always looked like a VN with loooots of makeup.

It’s just a useful box, barely a “car”. It’s the appliance you get when you don’t even want to pretend to be getting a non-appliance (because when you’re getting an appliance, trying to look like you’re getting a non-appliance is uberfail).

By comparison, a Corvette is about missing teeth, rocking chairs, meth & playing the cider jug.

that pretty much describes the people who build Corvettes over in Kentucky .

It's a complicated web of manipulation, greed, need & incompetence.
There's no integrated plan here, it's just a massive bunch of things and people all competing against each other.

For example, if Zionists were running everything then we wouldn't be giving money to Indonesia & Palestine.
Another example; big flood in SEQ, money is already spent on aid elsewhere. You can't unspend money that's already spent. And that issue isn't just dirty socialist lefty filth painting on walls with their own poo & hugging each other & handing-out good citizen's money for no reason; there's a lot of "spend some aid money to keep those people there otherwise they'd all be fleeing & ending-up here where we'd have to pay more for them".

And nobody has a handle on WTF is going on, it's valid to say "hey there's a problem here" but a lot of time & effort & nutting-out is spent on most of what's already going-on, so as soon as you change something for the better there's pretty much always an equal-and-opposite reaction for the worse. Yet you can't just refuse to change either.
The Zionist are in bed with elements and factions of Islam both are masters in misleading people, only around 10% of people in the State called Israel are what could be called real Jews and the Zionist dominate them, even to the point that we are not allowed to hear what the true devout Jews of the OT say. The Talmud Zionist are of the golden Calf Mob and wave that Satanic 666 Star flag about not to mention the control they have over the USA is just amazing, it's like the USA is it's puppy dog.
Not to mention that this evil Pope is in bed with them, as are a lot of protestant mobs who support or worship the Beast, Jesus Christ in fact warned of them and that star of theirs they made themselves.

Before the SEQ Flood the Fed Gov did not have the money to give aid to elsewhere as well but lend that money.
I am not saying it's just the ALP, but money spent should be a open book to the public, take Indo for example what we give is what Indo spend on their military and they complained about our F111 being a threat and carried on like a pork chop about Australia.

It's made that way, so it's so hard to get a handle on what's going on and such makes us foolish. the same with local councils how they diddle everyone, no one can work out what the hell is going on with the financial matters and it's been organised that way, because they are such criminals and if you look into any Company as such you can work out what is what and it has to be that way, but with a Government run things, that people by rights should have the right to look into anything at the drop of a hat, so as to keep a eye on such Bastards. I think that such is how a healthy democracy should be and not keeping us in the dark like mushrooms.

Not to mention that when the Gov tossed the car industry out, their was no total audit to show the facts of that what they did was truly totally justified, X amount of people working in total vs tossed out on the bloody dole etc and now our Aus dollar is back down exporting could look ok again.
