New Commodore Performance Figures

The 270kW VE Late model camira SS V in 6spd auto form does a 13.7 ¼ mile according to Holden. The catch is they now need 98RON fuel for that figure. I think it retails for $51,000...but that would be the same speed for the cheaper SS which is about $46,000 - same price as the XR6T...

Im guessing the BF II Typhoon will get 10-15kW more and perhaps a tweak in price?

Im guessing the BF mkII T will get another 5-10kW and hopefully other goodies.

Why do ppl start threads assuming:

a) we know who they are

b) that we know youre a professional tuner

c) that a post on some website is gonna make a difference

Common sense applies in one's dealings with a customer, this is certainly a thread about stating the obvious.

It must be a day of irony....

Why would you post Holden performance figures on a Ford site and expect anyone to care.

I thought nowdays that performance figures arn't allowed to be advertised??

[Goobz]

And since when were advertised performance figures actually accurate?

Expensive Daewoo claimed that the last generation of HSV 6 litres were ment to be 297kw we all know that was BS so why would we believe this loll

It must be a day of iron maiden....they rock!!!

Ahh, well cobber, coz we can speculate on how Ford will counter this. Hopefully they give us juicy stereos with mp3 support, more power and Typhoon intercoolers or conrods...or both!

Speculate all you want.. Fact is, with Orion coming out, there will be minimal changes to the BF platform, it's just not viable. You might see very minimal changes, as with other SII 'updates', but be realistic, there will be nothing worthwhile, or evenly remotly worth mentioning.

They will counter the VE, just not with the BFII. If you actually WANT to buy a BFII, you'll be feeling as dumb as all the Bogan special owners who shelled out for the specials on GenIII before the 6Lt was dropped into the stock SS..

Unless it's a ute. History dictates the utes might not get much of a lift, and probably will get stuck with the BA/BF platform for some time. We still drive round with T series skirts and rear bars, made by Tickford 4 years ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
