OK LONG RANT

Ill be off my p's in august this year , So been a life long dream to own a v8 . And while putting one in my vs , 5L say $5,000 and a LS1 $10,000+
Id rather just buy a new car ,even thou I love the vs shape so much
but i have to face facts soon ,
*Ill be fully qualified in about under 2 years time . So need to start thinking about going out on my own and running my own business and such .
*So ill be needing a car that can tow a trailer and , store things that can't fit in the trailer in the boot/tray
*So ill need to get at least 2 apprentices hired as of the work I do , so there goes having a ute to drive as could only take one passenger with me .
And don't really want say them driving to the job site and that with out me / organizing where to meet up and that would suck . Currently how I have it with my boss , me and the other apprentice take it in turns picking each other up , then we drive to the bosses house and then all take his car to the job site . ANd that way say if we need to go back to anther job we arn't like running around and such .
*So I need a car with room to carry 3+ people in it as above ^
* And im really dead set on a lsX engine , and holden/commdore . As they are my favorite cars . And also want something thats a work horse but can look good on weekends and such , and still has the power/ speed
Thought about a crewman with a ls1 , but the rear seats are really small , and im only 6ft (not really tall) and the back seats are horrible , imagine making 1-2 apprentices sit in the back with me in the front with my chair fairly way back from the steering wheel would be horrible . and even thou i like the look of the crewman it just had all these little fails to it that added up .
so that pretty much ruled holden ute styled bodies out .
And didnt want a sedan as the boot isn't big enough , so that pretty much ruled them out automatically
So got me thinking what other types of bodies do holden make then it hit me ,
Wagons
Ever since I got my p's I wanted to get a wagon , but ended up with a sedan instead . And ive always had a soft spot for them as since a little kid ,family has always had a wagon that i thought was cool (vp wagon lol ) mum and dad bought it brand new hahah
so wanting a LSx engine in a wagon I went surfing the net for some , found mostly like berlina spec ones etc ,
Intill I found out holden made a number of VY SS wagons , and they look pure sexxx
Which is perfect for me , room for apprentices (leg room and able to fit more then 1 passenger) And also say down the track have kids with the missus or something lol lol lol , room for tools that dont fit in the trailer , nice tidy cruiser , and still look cool and have the v8 power .
Also with being a limited run the ss wagon has like leather seats , climate control , manual , most have sun roofs , etc basically a calais and ss sedan features but in the form of a wagon
and the vs shape , even thou its my favorite holden shape (especially the utes ), they are getting a bit old and out of date now
, and the vy brings in so much newer shapes and suspension etc
So yeh pretty much have my heart set on finding a vy ss wagon now hahah.
thoughts on my logic ?
