    Does the FG come with 6 from the show room? (genuine question)

    Its hardly a selling point? or means anything?
    Why do they have them then?
    Surely if it doesn't mean anything, ie doesn't do anything, maybe they should just get rid of the extra weight?
    I get what your saying though, I mean the Bugatti Veyron has 12 i believe, and I would not buy it for that reason alone....

    So its got 2 more from stock, probably the ones for the Diff? Anyway its probably not a selling point, your right, but if it didn't have them, I'm sure youd find a comment to say why you wouldn't buy one without having them, so i guess it is a selling point!

    I doubt that anybody would take into account the number of rads a car has one way or the other. They would decide not to buy the car if it gets a track record of overheating stuff though.

    All I am saying is no one cares how many radiators a car has, only that it performs. Just marketing rubbish really.

    I think they look too overwrought style-wise, I reckon DRL's make a car looks like it's wearing jewellery (and jewellery is for women :p)

    white vx - Fuel pump

    black vx - road worthy

    This one only had the LS3 in it.

    only 200-500 gts's will be made with the supercharged engine
    each dealership should be getting 2
    we are apparently getting 10.

    Looks even worse in real life. Like the angry eyes look of the new lancers with 100% more fail.

    Still think the rear makes it look like it's wearing a loin cloth.

    Why the hell does it have gauges down near the shifter? Are they brail so you can tell what's happening with your fingers?

    It's supposed to be a heritage throw back to the HK (?) monaro. At least it's gauges you rarely look at.

    There is a reason they were last seen in a HK, it's pointless having them. So if they are in a pointless spot and rarely looked at it's simply for the wank factor?

    A VF pulled up behind me at the petrol station the other night, not sure what model it was but it looked top of the range. Made my VY look small, and it sound like it was already cammed! had a real nice lump to it. It was an animal
