I really want one of these..... cloud9

Even looked better inside and out than the new M5 it was near... Not too mention 40k cheaper!

What finance deals can you get on one I wonder. scratchchin

Don't mess about, just dive into Picador and talk to them.

Had mine since March, better than sex, mind you I am almost 60. Hahaa.

My fourth VXR8 and without a doubt the best car I have ever had and if you want BIG power do to WP, I have and it's effing epic. smile

Someone buy mine then and I might just do it!

Looked at the GTR as well... 80k plus, for a Nissan!

Don't be daft, get yours forged, upgrade the gearbox for a stronger unit and it will be a weapon. LSA is only 556HP standard which is a bit gay, what you have is already better IMHO.

Prob won't as mines very good and it's allot of money to swap out. Just the whole package is a step up and at another level. Genuinely a better package than the new M5 it was parked up near TBH.

There's only one reason you would even contemplate this is that you weren't happy???

Ive spent 2 days in the GTS from Bedford to Ipswich to Salisbury
Its just mega honestly
It drives sensible when you want to but turns mental at the flick of a switch

And before you all say it Height Adjusters are awesome

I like it too, but I also like the C7 Vette (and the GTS Maloo if I could get one). This conflict ends up with me sticking with what I've got. Yours would have been awesome at TR with that Heartbeat.

I sat in the the same VXR8. It was very nice!

I was also lucky enough to sit in a McLaren P1 and an F1! Pretty exciting day all round.

Gen F Maloo with an LSA is what you need

It's a good starting point, but it can't be the complete package, as any production car is hobbled by the regulations it has to conform to. If you could go LSA, then you'd still put a cam in it, exhaust, cai, etc. I can only see the new cars making sense if you were happy with a standard car, but that isn't MyM8V8. I can't wait to see what his silver Maloo does. cool
