Hi, I previously owned a VN SS which was in need of alot of work, and I am too busy for all that so I ended up deciding on something a little newer and classier, and the Statesman is the goods.

1995 VS statesman Auto 5 Litre V8 - my first ever statesman
- has cold air induction
- K & N filter
- Custom Engine cover
- Non leather (I dislike the leather interior)
Pretty much stock standard as it sits, but I plan on getting a performance memcal and then maybe a few more mods here and there. Whats everyones opinion on Sunroof on a Stato?

- car also has Jensen 7inch DVD player - touch screen
- 12 inch fusion sub - Adjustable bass level from inside the car.

Pics below, please comment or make any responses as I would love to hear.
P.s Statesman is going in for a full service this week and an inspection also.
- will get some better pics later on! thanks again

VZ GTO. VS LS1.
RE: the sunroof, go for it! I've never looked back on fitting one to mine :) Maybe start a thread in the 'show off your ride' section instead to get some more comments in there. Looks like a nice clean stato to start your mods on :)
