It’s not just stickers and trim, much has been done to make the last ones the best ones with a lot of tinkering and some more handme-downs like Magnetic ride ( which I finally got to test recently via stevens GTS and its amazing) betterer brakes and some chassis tuning. If you had/have or have ridden in a VFII things should feel pretty familiar with some noticeable improvements, if HSV VFII was your bag then it should feel very familiar. Bascially It looks like they have done what they always do which is hand down some of the best bits to the next model down, so if you’ve driven a first Gen HSV Clubsport, I’d stab at saying that’s not far off what these last SS-V Redlines are gona be like, and that’s a good thing
