yeah but i don't like the annoying design quirks some of them have that cost a ridiculous amount to repair and the dealership thinks they can charge $600 for an oil change V8 Euros are great for people who have the money to run them and not much compares i know but Holden and Ford are all about affordable performance the latest HSV's are 0-100 in 4.9 seconds for 1/4 of the price of a V8 Euro now that packs a hell of an argument for the price i myself would have an HSV and a deposit on a nice house instead of an M3 for example and i was talking about most of the shit heaps that drive around on NZ roads, when i said they would shit on most.

Typing from my cellphone actually, I can. Not easy typing while out and about. The odd typo is okay for a phone keyboard while out fishing.

depends entirely on the exhaust design
did the exhaust on a repowered hilux . sounds as V8 as anything else

Well it took you longer enough to admit holden is not "all" truly all "Australian built". Took you long enough, could of said oh yes the odd the holden is not made in Australia / developed. But you just had to be ignorant about it.

the most expensive Holden ever , the W427 is a good deal cheaper than its comparable euro models
the standard SS is massivly cheaper
on a money basis , Holden is class leaders

Compared to what else is on offer. maxima, Accord, Aurion, Sonata, I'd take the aussie rwds every time, especially the higher spec falcons with it 200kw/400nm 4.0 and 6spd ZF auto.

Has it got an HSV badge somewhere around the glovebox! If so, you might have a gem.

I'm envious, but if that was me out there in the roughs, I wouldn't be able to see the screen for lunch.
