OD's new Poison Ivy G8 SSV Sportwagon

[OldDog]

The beast has finally turned up, here it is in all its splendour:spot on:

Being pre-delivered at the dealers in Dubbo last week

And here it is a few better shots taken this morning after i got it home. The number plate is still zip tied on, i havn't figured out where to put it yet.

I'm damn impressed with the car so far, comfort, speed and according to the build data from Holden, the only Poison Ivy G8 sportwagon made:rockon:

That is freaking sweet!
I've gotta admit, i'm not keen on the front bar on the sedans but it really suits the wagons! Oh and good choice not letting the dealership butcher your front bar to get the number plate on..
Any mods planned?

Drool mate...
whats your future plans?

 

[OldDog]

Probably won't do too much to it at the moment, i'm just enjoying the ride In the future i'm thinking of making a ram air system using the hood slots and possibly a cam and headers. I'm hoping that someone will develop an exhaust with a nice mellow rumble to it. The rear suspension feels a bit odd (bouncey) as well. If it doesn't settle down then i'll start working on that too.

re: license plate, i reckon the same as it is currently, but on the drivers side. maybe something stronger than cable ties though. looks sweet.

Willing to trade for busted up VP?

Good stuff, i gotta say i'd rather hear a chick say my cars nice rather than a bunch of blokes I'm gonna make a number plate bracket out of alloy plate over the weekend, no way am i gonna mount that plate under the grill!

How did you order Poison Ivy? When I bought my SSV S/E, they only came in blue, black and red! (I got blue)

Can you order all colours now?

Don't worry Tommo, our blue SS-V's a freakin HOT as man...

Also, I have to say, after seeing the number plate on the vents, i'm happy where mine is. That's obviously just my opinion anyway.
