its sooooo damn ugly

by **Sunboost** » April 14th, 2008, 8:53 am

I thought it looked OK.

by **speed.freak** » April 14th, 2008, 8:58 am

get rid of the stripes and get a normal ss spoiler on there and i think she's look alright, maybe....

by **Russ.** » April 14th, 2008, 9:00 am

The VE is an ugly car,
ugly car + bodykit = still an ugly car
Having said that, if I was offered one for free I wouldn't turn it down (I'd probably sell it to buy lots of E series

)

by **Dansedgli** » April 14th, 2008, 9:00 am

I dont mind it as far as retro styling goes.

I saw an EB this morning with an LED exhaust tip. That was ugly.

by **Sunboost** » April 14th, 2008, 9:21 am

Yea retro styling looks good, I liked all the artists impressions they did of other Brock and HDT specials.

The VE is a great looking car. I'd go a VE R8 over a FG GTP any day. FG GT's suk some serious dik. Wanky a55 stickers ftl.

by **Commando** » April 14th, 2008, 9:26 am

I'm really interested in seeing what the back end looks like! Commando approves

How awesome are those rims & reverse scoop!

by **burnt turtle** » April 14th, 2008, 9:26 am

i cant believe u guys like the look of this,

i want to hunt down the person that made this car and kill the facker!!
and u guys call urself ford men (shake of head)
im gona go hide now

by **Commando** » April 14th, 2008, 9:33 am

I reckon if it had R8 lights that extended into the bootlid it'd take off the VC rear end. Or the same with SS lights to a degree, although the lower placement of the R8s would suit better with extensions.

Im neither a ford or holden man
I just think holden make there cars for fuckwits

Its pretty good, not much different to normal lol
But yea the clubsport lights would set it off,, try to find some diff pics!!

by **Fairmont888** » April 14th, 2008, 11:05 am

SHENANIGANS.. now holden owners have something else they can pull themselves over and spend more money on.. wouldnt rate it as looking any better than the stock commy except the wheels either really suit the ridiculously flared guards.. or that flared guard isnt there anymore. stripe looks like something that belongs on a british airways plane, and that spoiler looks fair gay on a VE

wheels look ok, the front end on it is hot! love the bonnet reverse scoop but the rear is shocking!

ooohhh no im not a 1 eyed ford fan, not at all
i just think that this is the stupidest thing since holden put so much money into such a stupid car (VE)
the camaro or charger were good ideas to restyle into new cars but, this is just a stupid coomondore thing to do
wateva mate, next thing i no ul being writing ban
the "vicfords" thing is getting a bit old i think

by **EF ECTIV** » April 14th, 2008, 4:30 pm

I reckon it looks pretty good hey.... the bonnet and the rims look fuckin sweet

by **Jake** » April 14th, 2008, 4:37 pm

I think it looks OK, maybe cos its white and lowerd...

I think these look worse;

by **Stengord** » April 14th, 2008, 4:39 pm

The VE was the base of a prototype torana, that never got anywhere

Why is the VE stupid? How is your E series better?

The vicfords thing will never get old.

Posting mulitple posts to reply will though.

Did you actually read the article? Or just look at the pretty pictures?
It's not being made by Holden, it's being made by Peter Champion, the current owner of the HDT trademark.
In other words. It is not a Holden model, it is an aftermarket design.

I personally think it looks half decent. I agree with Commando though, R8 tail lights would be the way to go.

+1 for the vicfords thing.

The Front end looks MEAN as, the bonnet scoop is tops! i still dont like the rear spoiler.
but for an exact recreation theve done well.

by **Dansedgli** » April 14th, 2008, 4:53 pm

+1 is also getting old.

If people took the hint then I wouldnt have to write vicfords.com everywhere.

by **Stengord** » April 14th, 2008, 4:55 pm

I still dont get vicfords.com lolz

by **slo_sprint** » April 14th, 2008, 4:59 pm

Thats decent, i realize the wheels are a retro version of the old type wheels i reckon it would look heaps hotter with some thinner 5 spokes.

Other than that it looks mean as.

by **sphell** » April 14th, 2008, 5:11 pm

I think it looks ok. The white paint is a bit boring but it still looks better than that Cobra GT that Ford released.

by **Nikk O'lass** » April 14th, 2008, 5:31 pm

Better then what HSV has come up with, but is still don't like the VE, it sorta looks like a 380 with falcon lights and well, brocky flares! Funnly enough the flares suit this...

by **wicksy** » April 14th, 2008, 5:52 pm

i like it, loving the rims, looks tuff

by **AaronEF8** » April 14th, 2008, 6:21 pm

I think it looks tough as. Not sure on the rear wing though. I'd like to see a VK Group C Dayglo Marlboro paintjob on it too

PS It's spelt 'Commodore' - not being able to spell it is a classic symptom of one eyed boganism.

by **Stengord** » April 14th, 2008, 6:56 pm

lol @ his post group

by **old_mate** » April 14th, 2008, 7:37 pm

holden didn't spend a cent on that car, HDT did. Much like i'm sure the holden fanboys said Dick Johnson was a dick for spending heaps on a BA that no-one bought that had a ugly arsed plastic engine cover that sat on top of a sexy bonnet bulge...ruining a otherwise hot car.

by **pHaT`eL** » April 14th, 2008, 7:46 pm

Looks alrite. Those wheels look alot like Dolce DC6's without the bling, am I right?

by **simon5574** » April 14th, 2008, 8:10 pm

i like it, ford should do a similar thing - SVO style or ESP spec

(the vicfords thing has been flogged to death)

by **Dansedgli** » April 14th, 2008, 8:11 pm

Agreed, I wont do it anymore.

I dont think Ford can pull off the retro business as well as holden. Not enough cred for that kind of gear yet I reckon.

by **Rollin** » April 14th, 2008, 8:19 pm

'Cos it's shitloads faster, does mad as fcuck 2nd gear powerskids with 4 people and 3/4 of a tank of fuel on board, and it completely lacks any holden badging at all, therefore avoiding the stigma of said brand (ie, monsterously retarded bogans...up here the ford/holden bogan ratio is like 1/30495)

Oh yeah, and I can see out the back of it to park/change lanes...

I actually saw one in the city the other night, for the first time in a long time - it was a really dark blue/green and looked hot as fcuck

by **Dansedgli** » April 14th, 2008, 8:23 pm

But burnt turtle doesnt have a turbo one. Therefore resale > *.*

by **Kenaz** » April 14th, 2008, 8:26 pm

Looks pretty good I reckon. VE is a good looking car. I'm with Sunny, I would take a VE GTS over a FG GT

by **EDFalcon** » April 14th, 2008, 8:27 pm

I think it looks ok. Be interesting to see how excessive that spoiler is though.

by **simon5574** » April 14th, 2008, 8:48 pm

in most cases holden have outstyled ford in the media and win public perception vote - not that i agree

EDIT- thanks dan

by **Malakai** » April 14th, 2008, 8:49 pm

I'm not feeling it... doesn't do anything for me either way. I do think that a different colour would do it wonders though. Somebody photochop it in a darker colour.
