Looks like they are going to stick with the rough as guts V6 alloy but up its power to 200kW (though calling it 200kW has a psychological advantage numerically - it's now no longer in the 100's).

69ADY Member 85 Member For: 20y 8d Location: Sunny Coast, Qld Posted 09/04/06 12:27 AM Share Posted 09/04/06 12:27 AM I hope FORD don't follow Expensive Daewoo with the european styling in the next generation on from the BF range...... We're AUSSIES, and as a proud one, believe that our cars at the moment are some of the best looking ones in the world..... why take on somebody elses designs. After all, even as countries, we are still individual. Expensive Daewoo should stick to what's Aussie!!! Just my 2 centsAdrian Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/24610-holden-ve-takes-shape/#findComment-368712 Share on other sites More sharing options...
