I understand to some extent why people get replicas of rare and expensive cars.
But a replica of one of the most common cars on the road? WHy???

It's an automatic V6 base model Commo ffs... but why go to all that bother and not even swap the door handles for painted ones? Those early VE Omegas look repulsive without painted door handles. That's no exception.

perfect for a p plater too, its sell quick id say. looks the part.

i dont see anything wrong with people building replicas, as long as they dont try selling them as the real deal.

FFS, not only are my eyes bleeding, I need a new computer. This one just can’t recover after that.

And a bloody parachute? Just the thing to have… before you push it off a cliff.

This is no different to people putting XR or FPV kits on base model falcons. You going to post all of the cars that match that criteria in this thread? Ofcourse not.

Those who can look past a little badge will tell you the VE HSV E1 is a great looking car and that this is just another cheap shot at Holden/HSV which is pathetic.

I thought they might be fines for littering.
