    Looking at a new car...

    Hi,

    I actually have somebody interested in buying my Polo Gti from me. I have been looking around for some time, predominately at an SS commodore.

    I took one for a burn yesterday SS, 6spd manual, 250kw, completely stock..

    Ive owned one before but I forgot how it was stock as it was modified. They can be a little lazy, but once after about 4000rpm they go pretty hard.

    To be honest I dont think it would go better than the Polo Gti to about 100km/h. The little VW really scoots down low and has a stronger midrange than the SS.

    So what are you asking?

    What to get for a new car?

    What do you want out of a car and what will it be used for?

    I'd say get an Audi S5, TTS or R8, but then I don't really know what you are asking to compare against.

    The SS Commodore is a poor mans HSV, go all the way and get a W427 (375kW, 640nm) or get an Audi.

    Nope.

    Pony up a few more dollars and get an FG XR6T. There's was a very nice ute on carsales for 32k the other day.

    I forget what they changed from the BF, but I think maybe intake, intercooler. Not sure if the turbo has changed?
