Just got my April copy of MOTOR from Oz... Big spread on the latest mule from the boys at Clayton; the snazzy yellow version of the R8, known as the SV6000. Woz shown at the Melb motor show last week.

Looks on paper like a LS2 base R8 with the AP six-pot front stoppers and a few trim updates, but the biggest addition is this new Dynamic Driver Interface (DDI). Apparently developed by GM USA but yet to get a gig on the road. SV6000 is the GM virgin for this peice of kit. Looks like a palm pilot stuck beside the window controls! Gives all sorts of telemetry plus bluetooth for emails and a few other gimmicks for the propella-heads. HSV are looking for about 80,000 oz fun tickets if ya "just want one" badly enough!
cheers
