Yeah, I think the word 'subtle' fell out of their dictionary.

Along with 'stylish', 'seductive' and 'good taste'.

Maybe they just lost their dictionary of superlatives altogether.

Yeh, it's fairly average looking. I've always thought HSVs (and FPVs) were pretty tacky looking. Bogans love 'em though!

They look like taxis with bodykits. Because they are.

Seems a little busy looking from all angles.

Does it need both daytime running LED's and driving lights?

LEDs look cool on a Audi or Aston Martin but not on a shitty commodore FFS!

That kit is horrid!

Too me its like the designers looked at the front of the Audi and the new R35 and said lets use this on the new commodore, rather then being original looks copied, the rear bumper reminds me of the TRD camry!

And the wheels look like they're something from Tempe Tyres...

spotted several of these around .

I have always like HSV cars, but seriously, these mark 2 GTS/Clubsport cars look like they were designed by a 10 yr old bogan kid .

I just cant make myself love it.
