Thanks for that...it has justified my purchase

Now bring on a supercharged version

What do we want in the VF GTS, other than a ripper motor. FPV got the motor right, and HSV have to respond (and they will and it will be worth the wait). What else, does the GTS need to step up to another level? Your thoughts.

As the title suggests !!!

It's not going to happen this John. HSV owners will have to hide for a little while longer.

I don't mind..not going to move my GTS this year anyway so if it is 2013 I am cool with that...

AWD driveline, DCT transmission.....there I go again!
Davo, oh Davo get in here quick before the peasants like me revolt

Lol at little man syndrome. How about you post something that can add to the conversation rather than swipes on the internet.

I did, I posted up about fitting the price of an LSA motor and the comparison in price to the Harrop kits. There's your supercharged HSV which the thread is about.
Whereas you are taking swipes about c63 owners and how you'd hate to be them when they get dragged off at the lights.
Glass houses mate.

Better gearbox, step up in interior & exterior quality, a few more wanky gadgets like keyless entry.

That'll do me ...

The thread is about HSV fitting a superchsrged motor from factory with factory warranty. Whilst I see what you are saying about retro fitting an lsa, this needs to be done at factory.

Funny how the hsv guys said for years that the performance kills FPV v8. FPV always had
the better package though (handling and suspension/chasis) according to the mags.

Now that the hsv gets spanked, overall package is better and more important.

My thoughts on the c63 are well known, and I never took a swipe at any specific owner. It was a general comment. Factual as well.

Some valid points Nick. What specifically about build quality and what did you notice most from hsv to merc?
