After seeing the VF now, I thought I'd see how many people are now looking to do the upgrade. I'm sure there were a lot of people out there who were completely happy with what they had, then they saw the VF, and all of a sudden, it looks old, tired and ready for a trade in lol.

On the flip side, I have read a few negative opinions on it.

So, who is actually gonna buy one of these things?

I'll probably be looking in a couple of years I reckon.

It's always the same with every new model, not just the Commodore. People see it, and criticise certain things about it's looks, then the novelty wears off and we don't notice any more.

Ill think more about it once I see the rest of the range, be able to climb into it and look/touch/feel first hand instead of just look at photos.

But it will all boil down to how it drives, so maybe next year ill be more serious about trading in the stato for either a caprice v or a hsv grange

Why does everyone say they will have to drive one first? When did a Commodore not sell because it didn't drive satisfactorily?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure its customary to drive a car before you buy it. :p

Unless HSV do something totally horrendous with the GTS/Senator I'll probably ante up for one. Am delaying moving the E3 on till I see what is available. The other contender would be a Cherokee SRT8 for something totally different.
