Sorry, my bad. I'm talking about the FG. If the rotors are bigger...does that in anyway affect servicing costs or anything like that? I imagine that the pads might get used a lil' bit more quickly but that's all I can really see.

hey guys, just a quick question. Is there (and if so what is it) a difference between the brakes on an XR6 and and XR6 Turbo? The ford website says that the Turbo gets "Performance brakes" but I thought they were pretty much the same. Appreciate your help!

Nice write up dude!

What the hell is elect rust?

What I'm trying to figure out (and I'm sorry that this is a bit off-topic) is, is it a good enough car compared to like a Mazda 6MPS? I really like the FG XR6 Turbo, but am very worried about Ford reliability and quality control. I read an owner review on Drive.com and the guy said after 6months the car felt like it was 10 years old. How long have you had yours for now JP? Coupla months yea? One of the biggest issues is that I need a manual, and I think I've only heard one decent report about the manual out of all of 'em!

This is what I was wondering about. I wouldn't have thought that just anyone can walk into a Ford dealership and ask them for a staff discount on a new XR6T

What's to stop you from trying to sell it on for the usual price of like low $40k mark? That's a bloody awesome price though! Is this a deal that ends (the staff discount) or is it on all the time?

Thanks mate, will give that a go and see what they say!

I am thoroughly confused by this staff discount thing. So can I walk into a Ford dealership, start talking to them about an XR6T, and ask them their best price, when they say $45k, then I say, "Well how about a staff discount?". Is that how it goes? I can't imagine them saying, "Oh, ok, we'll just take $8,000 off the price." Won't they just say, "No."? Not having a go at anyone, I'm just confused. It sounds bloody fantasitc, coz the staff discount price for an FG is around about what we wanna spend, especially coz we're going Manual. I just don't understand how it works is all.

haha!

Cheers, I just wonder who would be able to deisgn something like that...

whoops! got øem around the wrong way! cheers!

Hey guys, sorry if this has been asked before, did a search but couldn´t find much. Trying to convince a friend to go the F6 Ute over a Maloo, but he insists that it´s still called the Typhoon (and the sedan is called the Tornado). On the FPV website I can´t find those names, so I´m guessing that settles it right?

Hahahahaha!

Nice mate, glad you got sorted in the end! Pics when you have it huh!
