Looks amazing in the video

What's the knob on the centre console?

Says "driver mode" and the centre button looks like esc off. Must be esc programs for track etc.

It is on all models and is to control tc, steering feel etc. has four stages on GTS and 3 on r8. Button in the middle turns everything off if held for 5 seconds.

Thanks for that mate, some of those wheels are just horrible, Senator looks the goods for me.

Hopefully when HSV look at this thread they'll understand that the timestamp of 7.43pm on the first post is when I created the thread in the Mods section, then moved it to the public forum when the embargo passed at 12.01am. :hide::lol:

Senator in black would be my choice, then swap the engine out of GTS in the showroom while noone is looking.
Every time I look at the wheels on the base modelClubby and Maloo I immediately think they belong on a VT S-pack, not a HSV!

The tourer and the grange look very nice. The rest are just pure abominations from the rear.

In the pics the rear to me looks to be all funny, conflicting angles and :spew:, but when I saw the rear in the video about half way through it was :drool:. Therefore as people are saying, the pictures don't seem to do them justice so I'll reserve my final opinion till I see one in the flesh.

You're right, it looks a lot better in that video. Shame he didn't drive the vehicle so people could hear it, or even better do the same type of review as Skaife did on that skidpan :D

Specs and prices here....

gts, grange r nice, maloo an clubby non r8 versions r abit gay, R8 versions r barely ok, senator not a fan, tourer not bad.

I think the photos of the rea are taken to low, from a standing height I hope the lines look more cohesive.

couldnt even mod the diffuser thing on the rear of the wagon, did they run out of time? could be a good thing though.

cant wait to see one in the flesh to forma real opinion.
