  1. hi guys im 22 live in Townsville. and I am looking at getting a XR6T. I am looking to mod it in the next year to 300kw. I love manuals but have not driven a semi yet. I like to shift gears and id but id like to be able to drop some smoke I know the auto can chirp like the best but there is something about shifting gears and I have never driven a auto and been happy with it. but I have never been in a XR6T with a semi auto. I have owned a few cars but never a new one and I dont want to jump in blind. I know cars are a cash hole but I want a small cash hole if there is such a think lol. some of the reasons I want a XR6T is its a 4 door that you can put a family in and on a Saturday night go to the drags have some fun. I have been thinking of waiting till next year gives me some time to save some $$$$ and by then ill be at my job more then 8 months. but the wait is killing me I want one now. this will be my first new car and my first big loan. can you guys please give me some advice on a few things if you dont mind. I have had a bit of a read on this forum and found out not to get a 5 speed man box and that gearboxes have trouble. also hand break does not work always work lol and oil sumps are plastic? also the ABS can have some problems. whats a No Go when looking at a XR6T. I know 5 speed manual is a No Go what else should I look out for are the first Ba autos problem child's are they any good? should I be looking at getting a BA MKII or younger for less problems I just dont want to buy a dud. also when getting XR6T is it true that even a K&N filter can void your warranty? if that's true whats the point of getting a new one off the floor if you cant do anything to it. I was thinking of going private or even a car dealer ship. and if I get one from a dealer ship what are the common things they will BS about I dont trust car dealers. should I look at getting my own finance from my bank and paying cash? or a car dealer loan and how long did you have to hold your job before there were going to hand out 25,000 my job is full time casual 40 hours a week 40,000 a year. anyone work for BBHD here? I have been at my job 4 months I herd it was hard to get a loan from a casual job. the only reason its casual is because they can sack me when they want no questions asked. also is anyone else 22 here I will need to get the car Insurance. I have my car now Insurance and its $200 a year that's fire and theft. im shore it will jump up to $3000 a year but I think my bank trusts my driving because the girl put my old 1980 mazda down as $2000 market value. look guys I am very sorry for making a massive post but I dont know anyone and every time I ask I hear something different. I am abit lost as what to do. Cheers for Reading. jungo
