    I don't like the new chrome door handles, the ones on the VE were much more classy IMHO. These ones are too main stream, the chrome surround, painted face were much better.

    May or may not be worth noting that the dash was covered in black plastic, you can sort of make it out in the 3rd photo. I wonder for what reason they would do that. I should have taken a photo of the interior, but it just looked the same as the launch photos, and i just wanted to eat my subway.

    They could have at least made the back look as good as the front. Looks as if they spent hours designing the front of the car and by the time they got to the back they ran out of time and rushed it.

    Could be so much worse. Clearly opinons are scattered all over the place, but will definitly make it interesting when they start flooding the streets and everyone gives their own modifications and taste to it. Now that would be entertaining.

    Aha yeah. Lets see how people make them look worse by modifying them. They'll find a way.

    ^ That looks even worse. As if you'd keep the ugly bit on there.

    Yep pretty much. Only decent part about the SS is the engine, but isn't it the same as the VE?

    I agree, the chrome VEs handle look much nicer. The VF handles look generic (although similar to Cruze ones)

    i dont think the photo really shows the bonnet bulge, so i ran it through a darker shade, which empahises its lines which the iphone camera struggles with. Now you can really see the bonnet bulge that the stripes sit on.
