Default video of VE

yes yet another VE thread.
was driving home today and spotted an uncamo VE so i followed and waited for them to stop. turned out they were going to a soccer game so i had time to do a bit of a video for those interested. 20mb goes for about 1 1/2 mins had dual exhuast and chrome trim possible v8 calais looked better in person than on the launch images etc.

That actually looks nice. So much better than anything in the pics or even the launch. The pumped out guards look a lot more integrated.

Yeah im sure i saw one the other day on the gold coast, was un-camoed and looked like a base model. But even for a base model looked damn nice.

works fine for me - comes through distorted though, squashed vertically, dunno if it was your encoding qwigybo or my player :P

either way the car looks nice enough. The 18's look more like 17's though, and the thing sits pretty damn high if that's an SS (or whatever the hell it was). Then again the distortion of the video made it look higher. Nice.

Good effort too mate, thanks for sharing.

i think it may have been the encode, didn't check the settings before running the program, forgot that the vid cam records in widescreen, i can re-encode if people want

up to you if you want to re-encode it mate, it's no big deal.

i never saw the VE launch video, it's interesting that they've carried over the fake air vent on the front guards from the SS to the Calais (unless that's not in the final production).
