i found this somewhere... the rear splitter looks very HSV... i know of the SRiV badges... strange that unless they are going to to a falcon and put in a turbo 4 engine as well!

Story on the new GTS in today Advertiser in SA

 

[Ian Johnston]

The Ford supercharged V8 is "advertised" as 335KW, but it seems most that go on the dynos read that, or more at the wheels.
So, Ford already have around 400kw+ at the engine. HSV(GMH) will have to do something special to knock Ford off the top rung of the power ladder.
They need the 650hp LS9 :smoking:

Hopefully it comes with some nicer wheels.

Hopefully it comes with some nicer wheels.

i liked the pentagons and the Gts wheels wasnt to big on the E2 and 3 gts wheels but i thought VE series had some of the greatest wheels that have come out =D only my opnion though

Body style could still be smaller, you see plenty of older models with new V8's transplanted into them.

Transplanting a motor into an older car vs building an OEM car that has to comply with all ADR's and providing a warranty with it for 100,000km is a different thing entirely. I think many of the **** kickers seem to forget that fact.
