[TVR IS KING]

Old info? I didnt search (oops) but Im pretty sure there are no threads about it.
Although I have seen the digitally enhanced picture before.

I think if Ray Borret tries to strike up a deal in the same fashion he talked to Paul Gover, he'll be lucky to get away from Victor Bray without being spat in the face. I cant imagine VB taking to the 57 being called "a bit old" and "part of history" too kindly, given hes supposedly a massive 57 chev fan.

i don't think they'll take it, top doorslammers have the bodies they do because the models they pick can have the low, pointed noise that they do while still looking like the original. One guy even had his car limited because the car he used for his body is too aerodynamic

[SlickHolden]

Not just a massive 57 man but a massive man:eek:.
I wonder how the Efijy would go?

[hotholdens.com]

that would be sick

[Peter PaP]

I reckon it would look pretty cool.

[SlickHolden]

Big Vic is a nice approachable guy, My brother had his pick taken with him.
But his son is a little less approachable and good at ignoring to:p

[fpv_gtho]

Well VB isnt exactly there to win as much as he can to keep the sponsors happy anymore, his sons taken over that pretty much so he can concentrate more on the development parts, running the team etc.

[gustov]

The Efijy would be pretty tough but i understand that VB is a 57 chev man and now that Ben has the monaro maybe holden should ask the guy with the red monaro that is sponsored by holden genuine parts

They are thinking about possibilities of producing Efijy in small series, at price at about million USD. Holden for a million...

[Rockefella]

With enough money I could turn a Kia Rio into a drag racing star. It's a cool idea I guess, since the Efijy is a nice looking car.. but yeah.

[SlickHolden]

Also you could make a Go-Kart do sub 5's:D But it might be dangerous:D

[fpv_gtho]

I think you could get a coachbuilder to make you a Efijy for less than a million dollars, and thats with hand crafted metal.

Wouldn't matter what price they were selling them for, I still wouldn't buy one.

A ridiculously ****ing awesome and faptastic Holden. Have you seen inside the thing? It rocks! And a blown, polished up LS2, what more could you want?

[fpv_gtho]

Twin turbo LS2?

Hell yea id love to see the Efijy in limited production! and a top doorslammer would be the icing on the cake - Victor Bray is definetly the man for the job

apparently there has been heaps of offers on it globally for the original concept version

see link Holden Efigy: there is talk that GM Holden may produce a limited run of the Efigy concept car (http://www.carupdate.com.au/1952/holden-efigy-will-it-enter-limited-production/)

would production lose exclusivity?


also i reckon i know where Victor Bray can lose some Kgs and improve times!

Agree. I like the car, too.

Holden Efijy could be produced thanks to interest from super wealthy (http://www.lacame04.com/holden-efijy-could-be-produced-thanks-to-interest-from-super-wealthy_57384.html)

Holden to produce Efijy Concept? (http://www.leftlanenews.com/holden-to-produce-efijy-concept.html)

[IWantAnAudiRS6]

I would so buy that if I had the money. Let's hope it's not turned into a drag racer and ruined.

Sam, I saw the Efijy at the Adelaide Motor Show. I think the car is actually more beautiful than it is when you just see a pictures of it.

Damn you!! :D I first saw it in a book that RobPorsche sent me for Christmas, and remember thinking: "Wow."

I suppose the most beautiful things look even better in real life. I think the fact that it's got the go to match the show gives it huge bonus points.

An Efijy Doorslammer would just be a standard 'slammer engine and chassis, just with an Efijy-styled fibreglass body on it. And it would have to look a lot different, because the rear of the Efijy slopes down significatnly, but Doorslammers have very high rear ends.

I guess Im the odd one out when I say i wasnt really impressed by it.

I saw it when i was at the nats and i thought the streeters where much more intresting.
