    I've got a theory behind that. What's the bet they've spent all this time on a bimodal catback and still have the shit cast manifolds?

    Think I have a VFII at work tomorrow for prelaunch training, will check and report.

    Looks like just a pipe from the intake plumbed into the cabin

    Cosmetic changes look ok and the addition of the LS3 V8 is a good thing, but I note there doesn't appear to be any interior changes. Wonder why.

    Here is the updated taillights for Ute and Wagon.

    Ill reserve judgement on the exhaust until I hear it in person.
    Looking forward to see what HSV will release.

    All the thousands of dollars we spend on good exhausts. I could of just shoved some Ag pipe through the firewall. Holden is a bloody embarrassment. I'm going to go spit on my car now.

    Your working out of the Tbar branch right? Tims trying to get me into that red GTS down stairs. Might be the go after seeing the launch of the series 2.

    Yeah bud, make sure he doesn't get the best of you, smooth operator old Timmy.

    After seeing the S2, I'm happy staying with my S1, I'll slap Brembos on it and cam it later on and I'm good.

    Re: VF Series II IS HERE

    I'm sorry but you lot are turning into a bunch of whiners......

    They give you what you want, the LS3 and all you can comment on is an exhaust sound from a video! There is very limited money left in the kitty, i believe they have done exactly what the V8 community want and produced the the best performing Holden EVER! They have also fitted a bi-modal exhaust with two modes. What more does one want from a car produced to satisfy an ever diminishing market? If you're not a fan then spend your money on a hi-po Euro and bearing in mind it'll cost you 3 times the price for the same performance.

    What i think is worthy of a whinge is the pathetic launch, looked like it was thrown together in someone's back shed.
