its an xf, front quarter gives it. - and xd-xf has the slots behind the plastic shroud. - circles in the rear metal for the tail lights too. commo's dont have the dog leg either.

c pilar on vk/vl is with the extra window no plastic, vc/vh is solid with small plastic triangle.

Thumbs up Re: Epic Fail's - Car related....



It is a fail because .
1: Gup owns it !
2: It's a Holden!
3: The Cannons are 2" off the road so therefore it cannot be reversed anywhere.. especially down a driveway !
4: You don't understand i actually like this car .. but now i want to burn it with fire !!



DIE DAMN YOU INTERNET ARGUMENT DIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1: Gup may be a holden man at heart but he is the creator of powercruise. HP heaven for hoons and car enthusiasts australia wide.
2: I will take this as meaning that you are not a car enthusiast but a ford enthusiast.
3: Exhaust pipes, not cannons
4: You've got a pretty ******** up way of telling people that you like a car.

I guess I'm just not 'up to date' with the lingo in the car scene because last I remember, saying a car is an epic fail usually means that you do not like said car.

Not too fond of the yellow (each to his own) but wheel style and ride height on that are sick!

I don't think that's too bad. It looks like one of those HSVDT edition ones with an APS sticker. Looks okay and prob very quick.
