HSV Gen- F Launched - Official Pics/Video and details (Warning: pic heavy)

The red seats are not nice at all doc. They look worse in the flesh in my opinion.

Any other leather colour combinations in the HSV's ?

if the red seats weren't too made I'd get them to break up all the grey/ black plastics inside.
Also the lower lip spoiler and probably the auto. From one review on the SS (I think), they said the auto was as good as the ZF now and much better than the manual.

One thing I don't like is the design of the red seats. I had an E1 GTS and the red and black seats looked fantastic. The huge red squares on the new HSV seats look crap IMO.
The SSV seats look better.

I do agree with you there! the Red in the video looks very very nice lol with red i just worry about fading and bleed. Yeah the red seats arent that nice :(

These seats looked good IMO, especially when you consider it was back in 2006.
The Gen F GTS seats will look best left in black, to my eyes anyway.

:eeew: too much flat, featureless red on the actual bolsters.

the lip spoiler does look nice, would need to see it in real life first.

Thats good to hear about the auto as I was going down that path, and the GTS gets the 6L90E Auto box. I wonder if it farts and carries during gear changes lol

Lip spoiler definitely the one to have.

Gts with lip spoiler over bigger spoiler IMHO. Big spoiler doesn't suit the car.

Waiting for the call to drive the gts. There is only one built atm.

There is a senator available for drive but I can't find the firkin time to get there.

Rumour is they are very different to ve and very nice on the road.

C'mon boys!

I wonder if the lip spoiler uses the same holes as the big one lol

Brisbane?

I actually think the GTS larger spoiler looks good and helps differentiate it from the other models. Usually I'd go with the smaller one but think I'd make an exception for this one.

tinted windows would set it off nicely too. I never noticed the roof aerial till now. A bit picky, but something less antenna-like would be cooler.
