I'm not a big fan of wings and spoilers on road cars, at least on the VL group A they had a purpose. A Calais V would pretty much give me all I want without having to jump up to a HSV. The SS V is all good and well but a delete option on the spoiler would be nice.
From the what car would you buy if you won lotto thread:

All though the SS is nice, it doesn't quite fit my bill. Don't even get me started on one press release or article saying that you can get a 6M in the SV6 wagon (which you can't apparently) BOOO!
