Both camps have had seat issues (which might be a result of common suppliers). Each car has been recalled for various things and we're all clutching at straws as who is worse.

And lets not get caught up with the hype of a recall either (GTF grommet anyone?!).

OT: Full circle again but I think we need to be careful what people call a complete package. For someone who wants grunt, the SSV-R is not a complete package and for someone who wants bells and whistles, the XR8 is not a complete package. I think we need to give that argument a rest. What one person wants is different to others. So lets park this "complete package" argument.

The testers who have awarded the win to the XR8 see it as a muscle car and see the segment as muscle cars and those the give the win to the SSV-R see it differently. They are both not wrong.

It depends on your hypothesis.
Well said mate!! Now let's all move on people!
