^^ Roger, is this thing above faster than what you got back home? I might bet on it if it's been in SW's speed shop?

Cheers mate... hope we can share beers and laughs again sometime.

As soon as SW gets some 44" Forgelines for it, we are good to go, already right hand drive

Got a deposit on a new daily, auto in red. http://www.hsv.com.au/Gen-F/see/GTS/



Same engine as ZL1 Camaro

Mate, I look forward to our next beer, cheers

You guys in US are getting the SS version, in Redline specification I believe, hence the lack of options.

US version has 6.2 litre LS3, Aust version has 6.0

Here is the TV ad for the new daily

Took a new Clubsport (similar but withoutSC driveline) for a test drive, really impressed with how refined it felt, but with good exhaust note.

Seats not as good as the CTS-V (damn you SW ), hopefully GTS ones are.

Expected delivery late September.

cheers

That's a bad ass commercial, makes me want one! Looks like a sweet car. Can you get one in left hand drive?

No LHD HSVs, but you can get the Chevy SS, put a blower on it, some suspension mods etc. Of course you can take mine for a spin when you come down here
