bwahaha

i love it when people compare v8 supercars to their street cushions
...because the latest ve supercar uses the some superfast engine as your
monaro cv8 : which is slower than any FPV. Ever.

I have V8 supercar race seat covers. They make my fairmont just as fast as the V8 supercars. And dont even try and tell me they dont, cause I can tell. It just makes it just like a V8 supercar, becaus thats what the seat covers say. Im tired........

Before I took the modifying path I turned up with my bog stock auto phoon to a HSV dealership and took a bit of convincing (it was easier getting a test drive in a AMG) just to go for a test drive.
This is my personal opinion as I came out of an auto hsv senator into a auto typhoon. During the R8 test drive there were a few observations (for autos);

-The car firstly felt bigger than the phoon when inside
-Felt heavier just driving along in traffic
-Under acceleration felt a bit like the GT nothing till 4000revs (no offence intended)
-Alot of screaming from the engine but not much going, alot more effort
-The auto definately is not suited to the car, the shifts just didn't feel right
-Cornering yes had slightly better feel but still felt big around corners
-Brakes couldn't see much difference compared to the standard brembos

The phoon is my first ford/fpv and did have an SS before the senator.
PS. The Phoon in my opinion definately quicker straight line and better overall package.
Just my 5.5 cents

Yeah I'll have a bit of a bite at this one ... shame he's not here to see it.

At least i know with the Ford I will have seat belts that work ... and won't be worrying about having and underbonnet fire due to leaking fuel lines.
