Actually check ...

Or check the HSV's version with a 7.0-litre V8 and 500hp engine

http://media.theage.com.au/?rid=35911

Or at the Melbourne motor show

Memo to VESA and Holden. If you are reading this, put the 60 into production and then try and put it in the supertaxi series.

I tend to disagree. The W427 looks like its face was smashed in and nose flattened. Sometimes I wonder how HSV can get certain design elements so wrong?

The Coupe-60 on the other hand is one of the most gorgeous coupes I've ever seen... yes I just came back from the MMS.

If they put the Coupe-60 into production, my VE SS would be looking for a new home...

Backagain has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Man that's one ugly piece of machinery, over the top and out pf proportion, just like the original Walkinshaw.

There's no reason Holden can't slap the silky TT style steering wheel on every SV6! After all as far as Audi as concerned what's good enough for the R8 supercar is good enough for the humble S3 runabout.

Unfortunately the design while awesome, is a blatant rip-off of the Ford Mustang down the side mish-mashed with V8 Supercar and VE themes......

I agree, the first time I looked at the coupe I thought of the Mustang!

The Coupe 60 looks alright even once you look past the concept bling. Not sure if they would be able to build it as shown though - does anyone build a pillarless coupe currently, I can't think of any.
