    If any VF GTS owners aren't out driving the wheels off their new rides I would be eager to hear what the hub-to-guard measures up at???

    My VF SSV is 400 front and 410 rear.

    Nice cars, I love the red.

    You may be right saying that aftermarket has very little chance of improving the ride/handling comprise but if that’s the finished ride height on the Prussian Steel example then they definitely could do with an inch drop.

    As one of the desperados still waiting in the GTS delivery queue, is there any chance one of you lucky few can post some pics of the underside, particularly interested in the rear end sub frame set-up, etc and things like coolers....the published stuff out there really hasn't shown us bits of the underside...might be asking too much I know but like many here I'm sure it would be of interest.

    Saw a blue GTS at City Motors this morning when I dropped my SSV in for the 3k service. I think its the first one they 've received. Man it looks nice

    The brakes are massive and I love the huge exhaust tips - I want some!

    Yeah that has been there for a few weeks now...can't move it because of the colour I think.....it must be floor stock that has been cohersed onto them...if it was the standard colours I'd say the new owner would have been driving it for a while...

    And it has the SV wheels and sunroof as options. If you wanted them then thats fine but if you didn't then you are paying for something you didn't want.
    Does anyone know what the SV wheel option costs?
    I am boring and just ordered the stock standard white with no options, well except for the spare wheel
