I have worked out my new colour scheme for the new car.
Nickel Silver
Red Hot/Black Leather interior.
Black powder coated wheels.
Orange Dayglo stripes taken off the accessory ones available from GMH. The colour is the same as the side stripes on XW GTHO Silver Fox.
Anyone do a photoshop for me?

Mate, I can honestly tell you, The silver isn't a great choice (no offence, you obviously have your personal choice) But have you seen the new purple, dad got the blue on his SV6 and hasn't looked back. Until he saw the purple...

Don't know if high body stripes suit modern cars?

How about a FOOSE version. Two tone with orange pin stripe?

i like the second two tone one! looks awesome! how much can you customise them from factory? or dont they like too detailed orders.

i really dont like the stripes they put on the SS comos, the ones that finish mid way across the bonnet and have rounded edges, look a bit dicky to me.

I dont mind the factory SS stripes, may have got them myself if I was a younger petrolhead.

Personally I dislike with a passion the sill stripes, thought they looked awful on the f*rds (well they just made the car look more awful) , for me they dont do anything for the VE either.

I took the brochure and blacked the wheels on the silver colour...thats the go..the orange track stripes on the silver will be the business as well. Black leather interior with red dash.

These are the colours.

So if you can image the orange on the bonnet and roof with gloss black wheels you get the pic.

Your gunna need new brakes for a car like that
Seems to be no big brake option
Mind you for $60k I'd want better than what it comes with factory

I just did the calculator with all the options I'd want on a SSV V8 manual
Can't afford $63k + ORC... stick to the $1200 datto

I think for the money I'd go a few extra $ and get a clubby

FOOSE style

Cant justify the Clubby...With my fleet on the SSV and none on the HSV the difference is $16k....for what?..both have 19" wheels..4 spot brakes and a HSV badge?..The SSV has full leather too..Club has cloth..and half the insurance on the SSV.
