I have read the previous topics comparing VY and VZ and was just wondering if the general opinion has changed.
My uneducated opinion is that I would prefer a VY for the tried and tested Ecotech, even though the Alloytech appears better on paper.
I need a comfortable and reliable station wagon (yep, junior coming)and need to talk the good lady out of a Falcon.
Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Get the VY.
Never buy the first version of any new engine design.
The VY 3.8 V6 Ecotec is bulletproof & reliable. Put a good LPG system on it & it will cost next to nothing to run.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0 |

....and the 3.8 has more torque down low.....
It also has those maintenance free hydraulic tappets...
I understand Holden has recently changed the cam timing on 3.6 to get more torque down low...
