LMAO what a silly question. It depends what the car is used for, theres ofc price differances, the amount of work.

Preety hard to compare side by side....

I would say RedTop.

The V6 is just too heavy!
Performance from both standard engines a Redtop Nova would be quicker.

V6 would sound nice though!!!

Can i ask tho, how many of you have been in a V6 compared to a redtop?

V6 has more torque, slighty more power.

V6 aint massively heavier than a xe tbh...
But the weight is further forward due to the extra head etc....

Ask RJ for his opinion as hes had both in his saloon.

In a Nova ; an XE. However for an Omega or similar, the V6 makes far more sense.

20kg is a lot extra to plonk in the engine bay, you'd have to be crazy to fit something even heavier than the already too heavy leadtop lol

I'd like to hear a V6 Nova with TB's on it :D

But I'd say a nicely spec'd XE
