75 cruiser ute
a mate of mine jst bought one VE SS black manual. took me for a drive in it through the hills it sticks to the road like glue. and the stability control is amazing, i wish i had it. my mate owns a tyre shop so needless to say the ute has no problem spinning freely into 3rd in the dry. looks great inside aswell.

only thing that is a downer is the ride height it looks way to high.

I went for a drive (was the passenger) in an SV6 Ute the other day and it handled really well, the engine had a nice punch for a V6 and the seats were very comfortable.

a bloke at work yesterday picked up his black ve ss-v ute up yesterday, very nice, before it left the dealer it went straight down to exhaust shop to get new system. His system is one where you can adjust how loud it it is by a remote control on his key ring. Not bad for a 20 year old apprentice

One of the best improvements in the high output V6 if you ask me. Holden made significant steps forward compared with the VZ Alloytec. Then when it's tuned properly, it provides even better responsiveness.

The new VE ute ride height is a little over the top from the factory though. Can almost walk under the rear wheel arches!

my pop picked up his redhot ss on saturday, 6-speed auto tho, but the exhaust note is impressive for once, looks HOT, this utes very much a weekend driver tho, so no test run for me at the moment as its raining:bang::cry:
