I saw an add for it. They're reviewing the HSV again.... Well a different model HSV, so basically the one they already did with a different body kit!

great more holden crap to see get reviewd

Did you expect any different from TGAU?

[Soop]

Meh, they could paint it blue and it would be a Falcon. Same shit different smell. That's the problem with TGAU, wtf are they going to review in 6months? What TGUK did 6months prior?

The website says its only an 8 part series.

I'm surprised they held out doing holden vs. ford till the 2nd episode. They actually introduced the 2nd ep saying "next week we will do what you all expected us to do, holden v ford". - Alex.

I don't mind the show, by the looks of it what they are reviewing is going to be the W427... What I don't understand is why people are surprised that they would review these cars? They are Australian... as is TGAU.. They are performance model vehicles and should be reviewed. Why not get the local stuff out of the way? TGUK review Jags and Landrovers because they are British. I would say it will only be a matter of time till the TRD Aurion is on.

I'm not surprised that they're reviewing them. That doesn't really worry me at all. I Just fail to see the point in reviewing the same car twice. W427 is just a commodore with a bigger motor in it. So how can you make a whole review on that? Especially considering they've just done the Holden V Ford thing.

There is more too it then just a bigger engine, its like saying a Tuned by STi Liberty is the same as a base Liberty GT.... When there are lots of small things to make an overall better package, suspension and chassis tweaks etc.

[Soop]

Yeah true. I would have said the same thing if it were a Tuned by STi lib too. If they had reviewed the GT the week before.

[B4TT]

LOL!, I guess really perhaps they should have spaced it out over the season, being that it is HSV two weeks in a row...... I can see it from that point of view now. but oh well..
