Overall both the straight 6 turbo ford and 6-6.2 litre holden motors are strong and capable of over 450hp with stock internals but until they wise up and go to double rear wishbone suspension they will be limited fun at the track......

Oh sorry I didn't really write that clearly
There is absolutely nothing wrong with the engines. The engines were always great. I'm talking more the interior of the cabin. Iv test driven a brand new hsv v series clubsport, and there were bits and bobs rattling all over the inside. And the handbrake was wobbly, and the trim that fits between the dash and the door almost fell of when I opend the door. Granted that coulda been just that one, but it still turned me off. Iv noticed same for the previous models.
Performance wise, my mate whose a cop really loves both the falcon and the commodore and sais that the high speed stability is pretty Fuckin good
