nice car, love the colour,
that car has the best interior,

i rekon the interior wil be set of if you got all the lights in the dash and centre console changed to blue or red from ugly green, i know im getting it done, i think you have to get someone to do it, look up a guy on here called Phreddy.


also definately get 20's, look up Verde Kaos rims, i rekon they would look killer on your car.

That is the best car holden has ever designed imo and the black just makes it perfect. Having said that, some new rims are needed. I'd stick with some genuine GMH rims or some black with chrome lip.

Yeah I have seen those blue set-up's, they look fantastic! Though I wouldn't really have the time or experience to do it im afraid, I doubt a place like autobarn do it? I checked out those Verde's they look amazing! Just the style i was after. I was thinking 19"s how expensive are the tyres for the 20's/19's?

Im assuming staggered means a wider tyre on the back? What are the advantages of this besides the looks! 5% would be awesome, but ive heard its difficult to see out of.

Also, being 19 and on P-plates (soon to transfer to QLD licence so thatll make things better!) I think im just asking for trouble with the 5% so I was looking towards 20% or 35%

Yeah I just love every bit of it! But as you said, new wheels would complete it. I have seen some great GMH wheels but not sure on how much they are.

Thanks for the great feedback! Any other ideas or comments would be greatly appreciated. Might seem like a bizzarre choice for a 19 y.o. but its definately my style, plan to look after her as best I can as its the first car ive ever bought!

Clearly a super sexy car.

Black + Bone interior... could there be a better combo? no.

Good to see another calais :D Personally I would keep it stock, but thats only because I love the look of Calais' as they are, but thats just me being an old fart :p
