If only it had the grip of the GTS. You have to hand it to HSV for focusing on this area to make the car faster (and look good to). It's one thing to have the power and another to make it useable. Lets face it, the F6 in the real world is making more like 350kW's and God know's how much turbo boosted torque. Even the 315BOSS GT's are in the real world making GTS output numbers or more. The FPV's rear suspension and 245mm SP Sports Maxx were never going let these cars show their true potenial.
