Shit, and it took some getting used to for me to go from a Carolla to a Camry!
If it hurts, you aren't doing it right.

Here's 'nugget' after the tint today.....
Not too bad on fuel, better than the Terry, that turbo used to not help. Mind you I haven't started to drive as the manufacturer intended yet

Re: Meet The New Tin Top
The fuel economy drops quite a bit when you give it the berries. Our SSV ranges from 10L/100km to 17 depending on how you drive it.Damon Z1000 wrote:Not too bad on fuel, better than the Terry, that turbo used to not help. Mind you I haven't started to drive as the manufacturer intended yet

Re: Meet The New Tin Top
You had better get rid of those 22's I hear that they flat spot really easy after running over a small pot hole, unlike 19's

Re: Meet The New Tin Top
I feel my fuel economy is alittle worse off with the wider 9.5inch 22s. And those farking pot holes are dangerous

Re: Meet The New Tin Top
I have seen the 5.7L holden engine sit at the 35l/100km mark when fanging around. Thirsty little 8's if you give it the berries all the time.
I managed to get an 04 Ford LTD to 86L/100km for about 2-3 km once. Gotta love doing a ford drive day at a track.

Re: Meet The New Tin Top
nice......
I have a manual 6speed silver one on 19s so I am a bit biased
but maaaaaaaaaate
the silly Chev bowtie badge has gotta go!
why?
The car is built by Holden, was designed by Holden
and yes has bits from GM Powertrain (which are made in Canada and/or Mexico)
which happen to also go in Pontiacs Corvettes Oldsmobile and Chevs which
means its a case of mistaken identity. Chuck the badge
