if you go to the HSV website you can actually see all the pics and details of all the new VF models. You can also do a "build your own car" on each model and see a computerised render of it in any of the colours (including the new ones) with any of the new wheels and new options...... Head there if you're after more info!

Actually love the styling of the new Gen-F range... GTS is a real stand out & if you ask me, HSV has really stepped up. They now have a car that could complete with cars such as the M5 both in performance & overall features.

If the price of the GTS comes at the expected sub 100K, it will be at the very top of my list when I need to buy a family car... Stuff looking at a 2nd hand M5!

Those wheels are absolutely disgusting.

I think Ford may have a bit of a sweatup by now. Actually surprising how many over on fordxr6turbo forum have good words to say about the new HSVs. Still plenty who cant see past the blue oval though..

Sounds familiar. Problem is though with forced induction power upgrades are relatively easy. Not only that but now Ford have even more reason to bring a powerful GT HO back and Ford fans will flock to it.

With FPV shutting its doors(or moving next door??), it will be interesting to see if the bean counters at Ford are prepared to spend to keep up. We all know special vehicles are a limited market, and if money is tight, they may choose to spend on everyday cars development instead. Will be interesting.

Can anyone see similarities to the VT HSV's? When building my clubby, I turned it side on and was taken back...

Really, I'm amazed that HSV don't do the same. There isn't anything they do that cannot be done in line as part of the manufacturing process and therefore save a bomb in double handling/transport etc.
