Bitter Vero

Good luck to the guy for giving it a go but I cant help thinking that the bog standard Caprice looks way better than this? Its all subjective I suppose but the cost of this thing is also pushing it a bit.

agreed on all counts... is bitter using the displacement on demand as well? you'd think it could be included with that price

I don't think Bitter had Australia in mind as a potential export market, and the Statesman is not available over here....

I never knew the Bitter Vero was so ugly until now. The only good Bitter is Victoria Bitter.

Yeah, but here the Caprice is at least $150,000 cheaper than the Quattroporte they're aiming it at.

And WTF, if they're gonna make it so pricey, did they not go all out and base it on the Grange?
