I like it in a boy racer kind of way.

It has no class but will kick ass big style!

I'd prefer a Caddy CTS-V for that wedge (import obviously).

And I do wish car companies would drop this craze of putting gills behind the front wheel arches of just about every car they make cos it looks w***.

I prefer the current/old Monaro. Mind you that thing has 4 doors I suppose.

I know i'm going to buy one as soon as Mel goes back to work as they just sound the absolute bollox and are practical too.

A red one went past me the other day and it was louder than my IROC.
