That made me want a GT more/again.

I'll never buy one though because I'd have to mess with it and people would probably want to kill me.

I also lol'd when that guy mentioned that the VP (?) IRS helped the rear of the car grip the road better.....bwaaaaahahahhahahahahhahhaaaa!!!

Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up.

VP's had IRS? Was that the model they introduced that FE2 crap? Holden lowered camber bro! :P

I think its the same deal with the VP's as with the AUs. The lower models got the watts link and the higher models got IRS.

VP SS onwards and HSV all had IRS. Not sure about S pack though.

The other car in the vid is an early clubbie. Nice seats and steering wheel, not much else...
