That makes me so sad lol. Same colour, same city, nearly the same number plate as my wagon, and the same price, but it's probably not ****ed! Mine has a couple of things that doesn't though. But I still regret my purchase.

Mmmmm, white is the new black. Ride height looks like its been digitally altered tho! IMO the only thing HSV have got wrong with the E series is the factory ride height. They need to take a leaf out of FPVs book. Check out the ride height on any FPV (bar Territory smart arses!) and it is damn near perfect.

P.S. Photoshopped some tinted headlight covers onto the GTS. What ya reckon?

You serious? To replace the walky?

NZ_GTS · 05-05-08, 18:39

Nice for some! You gonna hang out for the 6.2 litre or try and screw a deal on a 6.0? Would ya buy an GTS or just an R8 and mod that? I'm wondering if lowering a GTS with MRC would have a negative effect on the ride and reduce the life of the shocks. I imagine they wouldn't be cheap to replace!

If anyone else needs some photoshop done, let me know, I can sort ya out.
