VF corrected that and other issues, but is fundamentally the same car. Exactly the same chassis, same size, fractionally lighter but not without it's own issues.
mmm i'd have my VY Clubsport back any day over the VE, felt a lot more raw and less heavy, nimble i suppose. I modded the LS1 so when I got the LS3 modded I thought it'd feel a lot stronger than the LS1 did but it didnt, i think that came down to weight. I've only sat in a VF LS3, not driven one, so i can't comment on that front.

I'm a Ford tragic but I have no issue owning Holdens. The VY Clubsport is my second favourite car i've ever owned. I can appreciate a nice car from any make.
