About This Car
The VE GTS was the top of the HSV tree in 2007. Factory 307kW and 550Nm from the 6.0-litre LS2 V8, confirmed on the engine plaque and the compliance plate, and a factory 3.45 limited-slip differential. The four-speed automatic transmission routes the power to the rear wheels, and the car was built with the VE GTS suspension package and the 280km/h instrument cluster as standard.
This car has had extensive mechanical work performed over its life. The receipts in the vehicle include a major engine repair involving a collapsed lifter and cam lobe damage, with the engine removed, camshaft bearing tolerances measured and machined, and the car returned to service. A steering rack was replaced, a starter motor was replaced, and a rear wheel bearing and CV joint were replaced at 211,148km. The most recent service was conducted in October 2024 at Autofast, where the car received an oil and filter change, coolant flush, diff fluid change, rear brake pads, and brake fluid. The front suspension has been lowered on Pedders adjustable coilovers, and the vendor advises the front suspension requires attention before driving.
The exterior is Phantom Black throughout, with the paint showing heavy swirl marks across all panels from years of use and washing without machine polishing. Paint correction by a professional detailer would significantly improve the presentation. The lower front bumper centre section has a crack, and the lower rear quarter guard edge shows paint rubbing damage. All four alloy wheels appear structurally sound. The reverse parking sensors are not fitted. The interior presents in honest condition, with the factory GTS red and black leather on all four seats, the HSV triple-pod dash gauges, Blaupunkt audio, and cruise control all present. The driver's seat shows bolster wear consistent with 217,637 kilometres. Floor mats are not fitted.
