Cally v6's are 170bhp and cruise machines, different power delivery too the redtop, redtop is more fun i'd say but the v6 is nice and toruey :)

Not entirely sure but i dont think the V6 is 190bhp, thats GSi spec, Think its more like a V6 SRi and around the 170 mark.


i thought the V6 was 4wd...... learn sumthing new everday

i was basing that 190BHP on the vectra v6.... there the same engine no?


there was a 4x4 V6 calibra & cav, but they were more of an 'exclusive' to the uk, so not many about.

there was though a regular 4x4 2ltr 16v NA car in the uk. Parkers aint listing the v6 4x4 tho

there are two different 2.0 16v engines for these. 1 of them is is the c20xe 150BHP and the other is the x20xe 136BHP(ecotec)

The c20xe was in this car up tp 1993 then was replaced with the ecotec model in 1994 although some cars in 1994 had the Redtop in them.

The v6 to the best of my knowledge is 190BHP. The main difference in the car beside the extra power is that the v6 is 4wd.

I think i got most of that right.

if yer going for a calibra id recmmend going for a LET with is the turbo charged version of the redtop and is also 4wd.
