[[p]wrr-247]

They have to change the motors if not just gunna buy a ve that will be cheaper spend that much running same crap as the ve wouldn't waste my time

the v8 in the ss is supposed to be the new Lt1

Yeah yeah it looks OK as a family car. Interior does seem impressive.

However Holden still needs to stop ####ing around and build a designated sports car.

Maybe a 1300kg 6.2 litr supercharged coupe that handles well and looks something like this.

The word to the press was that there are no changes to engines over the VE. Second last para of the link below.

Maybe so, but the talk is that due tot he SS going to the US the SS may receive a different engine variant to SS-V. This it to keep inline with requests from US buyers. Is it true? Who knows, we will know when the cars specs are all released from Holden, as of yet I do not think Holden have released any drive line details?

Looks like a fatter Mazda 3.

Saw it in person today at the V8 test day. It actually looks quite good.

The colour was very bright, I dont see it being a production colour but I guess we will wait and see.

The interior looked really nice though and the back end really suits the car well, much nicer than the VE back.

The GTO & G8's both got different V8's to what was in the local Holden models.
