Question HSV vs. Autocross

For those wanting to change the look of their new Goats, there are two options.

The Holden Special Vehicles body kit which would have to be imported from Australia, or the Pontiac Autocross body kit which is apparently going to be offered by Pontiac dealers this fall.

Which would you choose?

HSV







Autocross

I like the front end on the auto-cross but like the rear spoiler and rims better in the HSV picts.

I second what 74Formula had to say. Both kits help in the looks department. Get the dual/dual out back

I lke the look of the PLAIN holden front end better than I like the Pontiac version... they made it too bubbly/round, and it sticks out too far.

I don't think it matches the lines of the rest of the car.

I like the HSV look myself, and did some checking around.

All the genuine HSV body parts alone are around $6,000USD, not including shipping or installation. The 18" or 19" HSV wheels will set you back another couple of thousand without shipping, so going the full HSV look is a spendy proposition.

I wonder how much GM will sell the Autocross kit for?
