Order of power / best model

[Johnsy]

And with the new HSV's power doesn't come into it, as they are all the same from Clubsport up to the Grange.. so the lighter the car the better in this case...

 

[Senator Slash]

Yeah and I think the more gizzmos the heavier it is doh!

 

[taztassio]

the tourer is meant to be faster round the track than the r8 sedan, due to weight dist.

i have a vy ss, but would love a senator any day of the week over the ss, don't get me wrong the ss is great to drive and comfortable but the senator is just a cut above the rest, luxury, performance and a sportier look in my opinion.

most of all id love the new hsv grange in black, they looking the best out of the lot as it stands alone as its not a commodore base but the statesman base

 

[Senator Slash]

Ah so thats why it looks totally different, its because its a statesman base, I never considered that at all but yeah it totally makes sense. I wondered why have one of their lineup look totally different to the rest!

 

[cpbait]

yeh, my mate has a vs hsv grange, looks good, but the new hsv grange looks fantastic, love them.

 

[Junny]

I think your right there,

Grange
Senator Signature
GTS
Senator
R8
Clubsport

From top to bottom.

when i went in and ordered my car. i was curious about whats the difference between the gts and clubbie was.. they told me its just got different rims and leather seats. and in the clubbie its optional. didnt really understand him

 

[Senator Slash]

Isnt the GTS mafless also? Or is that just the monaro?

 

[cpbait]

yeh i think the gts is mafless and a bit more powerfull and sportier than the clubby from memory.

the clubby is what 290-300kw and the gts is 317+kw plus i thought the gts had a bit more than the clubby in terms of features like interior trims and body kit slightly different, etc.

 

[Johnsy]

The only difference from a R8 and a GTS ( apart from the badges ect ) is MRC.... They are all 6.2L 317kw from base clubbie to the grange.....
