E-Series Senator

[platinum]

After owning a really boring work wagon for a while, time to get back into something that has a bit more grunt!

LS2 6.0 VE Senator (6spd auto), has all of the good gear, sunroof, magnetic ride control (which actually works well).

Once the warrenty is up, it'll be time for some upgrades - twin turbo kits are looking quite nice, although not sure how the auto gearbox will cope (heard a few stories).

Nice one, always liked the more subdued look of the Senator over the Chubby

sexy!

what do they go like? i imagine they're up around 2 tons?

Wanted one of these since they came out... i'll pass on a series 2 though :spew:

So much nicer and understated than the clubby's and GTS'. Beatiful!

Awesome car, not sure I would have picked the white trim, especially anywhere that's easy to touch, have enough problems keeping the cream pillars in my car clean and you dont even touch them.

I would so love one of these though, is it quick?

series 1 is a very restrained and classy looking car (for a commode!)

[Euroboost]

Nice, always liked the Senators and Granges. It looks Much better with the colour coded lower bits, the black bits looked shit.

[Nathan Tinkler]

They drive much lighter than they are but they use up tyres pretty fast.

They turn them pretty hard with tc tuned off and they bellow really nice. Every cunt looks I assure you.

I've never driven one but I like these a lot. I think I'll hold on to my VX until I can afford to get into one.

Yeah they are heavy as but apparenty they do low 13s and 0-100 in 5 secs.
It goes good though - the magnetic ride control works great, the ride gets so much firmer. Interesting that the clubby doesn't get it.

The traction control works well too - gives you a bit of spin and skidz it up without cutting power.

I like these things, and the colour combo you've got doesn't look bad at all, nice car.

[wagoner]

nice ride benda! happy birthday btw!

[Sketchy]

I hate commodores but I like these. Alwyas catch my eye when I see them on the road and thats no mean feat for a commo that isnt a bogan wankbox.

Boost or GTFO

Nice one. Without a doubt the best looking of recent HSV models.

Went for a bit of a drive on the weekend, few pics, and before anyone mentions it, still need to get off my arse and do the exhaust/tune.

[brasher]

fuck I love these things.

Saw one the other day on the road, black, slammed low (not stupid low) with all the chrome bits and badges colour coded or deleted. On nice BBS rims. Nearly fainted.
