    Cool, have HSV released any details yet? Can you actually order one? I didn't think they were confirmed yet?

    Hi

    I did a bit of research and some people have given away information but nothing has been confirmed 100%. One dealership I dealt with told me they have taken several deposits and aren't taking anymore as they believe that stock will be very limited, another dealership told me they would only take deposits if I had previously purchased several new HSV's which I have done over the last 15 years.

    The big question for me is will the GTSR name be used?, maybe not....but I do know that in 2017 HSV are going to release something very special and several sources have told me November 2017 might be an exciting month. When I get this information from separate sources that align together I get excited!!

    I have placed a holding deposit subject to me liking the vehicle and should I not want the vehicle it will then be offered to someone else.

    Regards,

    GTSRVF

    Nice work Richard....I have spoken to PPQ up here about them producing HSV plates.....FPV are available but they have no immediate plans to release the HSV plates...they would be on a gold mine if they did IMO

    Re: New toy arriving soon....

    The first thing I've learnt in modding cars over the years is that if you make it go really fast it has to stop just as well, I know the VF 2 is getting front and rear brembo's as standard but they won't pull up like these!
    I remember when having 15" wheels was an upgrade now my discs are that big!!!
