what are peoples views on this car, it has fairly impressive stats at just over 400bhp with over 400 of the tourques and after being in my mates one they are crazy comfy and possibly the best looking car Vauxhall have made in a long time

IMO the new VXRs from Holden are some of the ugliest cars they have made. Id take the 1st Gen Vauxhall Monaro VXR anyday. Ever the 2nd gen. Plus all new vauxhalls are pretty sweet looking. Adam is a great looking car.

But still the VXR V8 is ALOT of car for the money.

I have a friend with a red one the same in the pic apart from his has black rims. He owns a CNC machining company and is loaded, he spent £15,000 on supercharging his VXR8, its now 900bhp and just over 1000 nm of torque.

It's insane, spins the wheels in every gear, you don't need to drop it down the gears when you have a 911 or M5 next to you. He also owns a Ferrari 360 and a road legal dragster that does 7 second quarter miles!

:twisted:
