I was driving home from work today, what should I see but a lovely Brand New VE SS with no plates on the side of the road, with smoke coming from under the bonnet and a perplexed driver scratching his head.
Very Impressed. Where do I sign?

Yeah I would have loved to have got some pics, but I was in thick traffic unfortunately, and without my Camera.

hahaha what already?????!!.... didn't even get it registered and they are starting to let out smoke... wonder what national recall caused that problem. Maybe the new VE should come eith a warning sticker on the dash ***WARNING*** Driving this vehicle will damage your health!!!!!!!

I wonder of fire extinguishers are on the options list.
Hey GT, at least you didn't have smoke. I can imagine Denny on the phone to GM saying, "you told me you fixed the piston slap with the LS2".

It'd have to be on the news or some forums somewhere, there is no way people would miss a VE smoking lol

Wait for the third fire.

Maybe they should have called it "Webber" instead of Omega?

Wait a second...Maybe holden's new commodore did come with an innovative feature?
I can see the Marketing Spin Doctors at Holden HQ already drawing up a Promo.. "Never seen before in a car...The all new SS-V Features a 270Kw 6.0L High performance Barbeque"
