that's just some pics of a VT SS i found on net for those people who don't know what one looks like.
sort of looks like a pont GTO or something like that anyway im not good with stuff like that, im not in US so i don't see any pont's really, i think it's the GTO that it looks like

As much as I like Jap cars... i'd go with the VT SS 5.7l V8, it just looks so sweet, It's a FI DOHC V8 right???

yeah all the new holdens are F I, but it would go though fuel alot, i would go though $10 going down the street, lol, nah not really but it would go though a bit, 5.7l and the soaror is 2.5 twin turbo, and my pulsar is like 1.6 l or something like that, 1.6 or 1.5 damn to long ago now

It's just more unique to me cause we don't have em in the US. Or you could get a Supra Those things get crazy fast with a little tuning, and I mean just a little to, that's going to be my first car out of college
