Default New GTS 325 TV ADD
JUST SAW THE V2 GTS 325 OR WAS IT 327 ON TV. LOOKS AWSOME. Makes the GT look very sedate by comparison, unfortunately.

I would call it a lot of things before I got to "AWESOME".
The Series 1 HSV's I dont mind. The series 2, however, are bordering on ridiculous in the looks department.

you really only good a few quick shots so it was hard to have a good lok at it.and while I not a big fan of all the stick on bs it did come across in the add to show you it was no ordinary commi by any means but looked very tough from the all angles shown in the add.and hey 6.2 litres of v8 under the bonnet. how much do they ask for these things?

I thought the series 1 hsv looked crappy(basically an afterthought) and would have taken an ss over the gts in the looks department in series 1 form, but in series 2 I would take the gts over the ss in looks ,maybe I,m not that old after all. maybe that they have had time to think about it its not so much of an afterthought, just a thought.

Yeah saw a few new HSV's at Philip Island the other weekend.

I recon the senator was the best of the lot, the rest (with them bonnet scoops) where just a touch, well actually a ship load over the top.

But someone will buy them, so who am I to say boo....

Hate to be picky, but isn't the topic about what the car looks like?

Unfortunately, due to the HSV badge, it will be a mega seller among the Cashed Up Bogans.
