is it just me or do they look like an Astra

[waza58]

No i think your right there mate, i was looking at that photo and thought they looked like another car but couldnt quite figure which one.

Now that you have said an Astra i think thats it, must have come from the same design house.

[Spoolin_20B]

its a shame tho why would you make a 2006 commodore look like a 2000 astra:confused: :confused:

[fullboost]

I don't really think it looks a great deal more modern than the VZ. From certian angles, there's aspects of the headlight area that looks very similar to the BA Falcon, or Felcon as you South Aussies say :p

[Spoolin_20B]

i like the flaired gards tho

I have the new 6.0-litre Astra in the driveway right now

Lucky it came with a full tank :D

[geordo]

even has the same rego plate

[Boxer]

Sweet, it has the same cylinder cut technology as the Chrysler (finally)


I was getting 11.3l/100km the other night just cruising

incorrect boxer :p no DOD on these motors, holden couldnt get it to work so they just canned it, only the VZ L76 has the hardware for it

[Boxer]

oh well... was getting down to 10.3l/100 just cruising round town. I was impressed

[10sec_rx7]

your right foot is not heavy enough boxer

[Boxer]

umm, I did say it was getting down to 10.3

At other times it was up around 30L/100 :P

[10sec_rx7]

thats better :)

martins fuel economy is about to turn to crap on sunday as well,

MMMM the cam is a nice one martin, proven 11.65@118mph cam....

*cough*The white one on the far right looks like the Ford Ba a bit.

[RFBOOM]

from front angle, the flared guards and SS bodykit looks really awesome.

Seeing how the HSV setup the rear taillights is very different to the Holden release which will make interesting for aftermarket rip-offs.

Has anyone had any "series 1 bugs" from driving them yet?

[The Gronk]

seen a few clubsports or something like that driving around on the weekend, and the taillights look shocking!

it looks like a mazda 6 crossed with a rx8....well that wat i think!!!

[johnsey]

i like em i wos driving today and looked in my rear view mirrow and jus the stance of the them with the flairs etc...looked good

[xplosv57]

Yep definetely looks like an astra, i got an astra daily driver and i parked it next to a VE SS, they look identical just ones a lil smaller!! Sad to see an '06 car resemble a '98 design but hey id still have a VE anyday!!!

[Camaro LS1]

it's realy very very nice ,,,,

thanks alot for the photo

[chainzaw]

the VE SS 6ltr pulls its weight but...

dont know about the other ones, but my mate was crusing lightly in 1st at the lights, then into second and we were sideways.... they've got balls when you need it, and they look niiiiice
