Overview
Changes to the VE Series II SS are minimal, but worthwhile. Exterior enhancements include a larger re-shaped grille, revised headlamp shape, deck-lid lip and spoiler plus 18-inch alloys. Inside there are body-hugging sports front seats, and the new iQ system, noted for its audio capabilities and ease of use, sits below distinctive circular air vents. Instruments are now white on red. The 6.0-litre AFM V8, now E85 compliant, develops (on petrol) 260kW/517Nm and returns 12.3L/100km through the six-speed 'Sports Auto'. With a complete list of safety features, including ABS, stability/traction control, brake assist and six airbags, the five-star ANCAP rating is fitting.
