Just shows how much the billion dollar millstone screwed Holden.
I disagree with this, I'm a Ford fan, but I prefer the looks of the VE over the FG.

Never found the seating position in either of my B series a problem nor when I drive the bosses FG either, I actually found with the leather trim in my F6 and the FG that the seats were great for comfort, feel and positioning. There is a chasm of difference between the way the B series and the FG drives and feels driving, almost revolutionary compared.

FG styling is very different to the B series, it is softened a little, and side by side they don't even come close to looking like the same car, I find Euro's and exotics very much keep the same styling, couldn't tell the difference between BMW's, no out there changes, I'm a massive Lambo fan and if that wasn't the case I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the models.
