looks pretty clean would be a great daily. not to sure on the rims though. Yeah i dislike chrome rims but these arent so "dinerplate" so I like them... I think they are acceptable on a statesman coz of all the chrome bits.. but would look odd on a standard commodore.. |

so im a low breed..? can you explain? lol X2 v8's arent that bad on fuel, i can get my stato down to 12 litres per 100 around town and 10 per 100 on the highway...not bad for a cammed ls1... But its still a pretty tidy stato mate, goodjob Fuel isn't the only thing with a V8. It's been a while since I had my V8 Statesman but I am assuming the rego now would have to be nearly 1k. Close? Really nice looking Stato mate. Well done on the rehab. |

Just got my rego renewal form yesterday just over 500 for 6 months or just under 1k for a year...its not that much more expensive, id rather pay the extra insurance and rego and have a tough v8 than save a couple of hundred bucks and have a 6...but still a very clean car, regardless of what motors in it |

Not a fan of the rims or the lack of LS1 but otherwise it is a very clean cruiser. so im a low breed..? can you explain?

My Clubsport doesn't really use anymore fuel than what my old VR V6 did, maybe 1L/100 but given it has twice the power that's a fair trade off. Got my rego renewal yesterday. $97X.XX for 12months. |

Yes you are, your staffie also! Start a thread in OFF TOPIC to explain why you arn't a low breed! LOL - I do miss the fun of owning a V8 but this is my daily, and i do about 130k's a day...... so im happy with the lack of LS1 fuel prices today are criminal. The wheels are on my list of things to change, I did the whitewalls thinking it would take the focus off them but mehhh LOL. VY Signature 19's with Whitewalls is what i really want on there but people want copious amounts of cash for them.... & I cant justify that much moolah for stock rims... no matter how mint they are |
