My understanding is that the VE is a quantum leap better than previous generations but I am over compromise. It is not a race car and is not really a long distance tourer.

They are alot better but its definitely still an Aussie car. Ford, holden, mitsu, kia, daiwoo are all in the same ballpark.

HOWEVER they are appealing to guys who dont care about track cars or long distance cruisers. Just guys who have grown up dreaming of owning a Walkie or VN SS. Blokes who have made their coin and just want something that'll look good, sound tough and most importantly have enough grunt to rip a good skid when they want to relive their teenage years!

They dont care for lap times and internet bragging rights. Cant really go wrong
