Very very nice :D I love that colour, although I'm a bit biased   :wink: The silver really shows off the curves

Edit: your old vxr looks the dogs in white  :cool:

i have not got ACC :sad: but the handling is immense as it is mate, i have had it on some twisty roads and it's road holding is brilliant and lets you get the power down at all times

That looks lovelly pal!!  :cool: :cool:

Was behind a berg and a normal VXR yesterday... for some reason the berg sounded  :cool:... but the vxr sounded a little flat if im honest. There is no denying that they are nice looking cars... just the quality that lets them down imo. Obviously I wasnt in the .:R or they would have both been behind me :tongue: :evil:

Very nice.
Im still not sure personally if the 18s work as well on the silver as they do on the other colours due to there colour.

the burg will have sounded better than the normal vxr as it has the Remus sports exhuast system which has no pre cat and only has a 100cell sports cat, which is also why the burg has more power than the standard vxr

haha Hutch, that track on your 510 sounds bloody awesome doesn't it? Even without Dynaudio it's a great sounding system with the right tunes.....

Seems 5 drs and 18's is the way to go?!
