Walkinshaw E2 extracts 480kW and 802Nm

[davey g-force]

Also agree....

so... This costs less than 50 grand... and produces 480kw? and the GTS has.. 320kw? (is it? im not sure)... So..... why would anyone in the market buy a GTS that costs what is it? 30 grand more?... why would anyone in the market buy any other kind of HSV

I dont get it?... Something I'm missing orr??

I think they mean it's $50K on top of the cost of the car

...which sounds way over-priced to me.

Its not that expensive when you think about it.

How much would you fork out to strap a supercharger kit to your car? I'm not talking about a DIY job in the backyard, but a fully engineered kit thats backed up by a drivetrain warranty, plus suspension, exhaust, wheels and body kit. Add to that the profit margin and labor costs, it doesn't seem that unreasonable.

Still ugly though.

Can't really see the privilege of a Walkinshaw tuned car.

Brabus on the other hand......

One could spend a lot more for a less powerful, less reliable and less unique supercar......
I'd have a Walky if i was spending $130K on a car.... Plus apparantly it's got enough manners to be driven every day....

I'd have the blower done. Do the suspension work myself. GTS larger brake option. Don't like the rims, but like the warranty.

They could just build one above the GTS for $15,000 extra. Maybe a GTS-R:beer chug:.

in the wheels march magazine they have a gts-r on the front cover with some small info about it possibly coming back

Or, they could just save themselves time and money, whilst keeping the rest of us happy, and offer it as a tick the box option on the VE Omega !

Which would mean bringing in the V8 as an option for the Omega also, but we all know everyone wants that too.Holden if your reading this post, take note.
