Who: Graeme Downes
What: VN SS
Where: Street Commodores No.15
Why: Graeme's SS gives little to any of our feature cars in any area, making it the best all-rounder of the year. What makes things even more interesting is that every department has been underplayed and understated - both visually and verbally, making this also the classiest of the year. Tasteful is the keyword, as the owner has built a knock-out ride without having to revert to a visual sucker-punch. Even after extensive modifications, the SS looks cohesive that it could have rolled off the factory assembly line. From the magnificent engine bay and astonishing horsepower to the monster stereo system and cool grey-on-grey interior/exterior aesthetics, the VN is hard to fault, and definitely difficult to beat.
Notable mentions:
