spite

As I promised, here's a couple of pics showing some of the gauges while sitting in a car park this evening. Sorry about the glare, had to take the photos with an IPhone.

I am just one week into My F6 and I am loving it too! :D

Seems to make a difference to my system!

I got a Garmin 3790T today and the retailer thew in the BlueTooth EcoRouteHD cable. The fuse cover panel obviously won't go on with the connector in the OBDII port but it definitely works. The gauges are about half a second behind the real ones (noticable on the RPM guage) but it looks pretty bling. I was using this on my FG FPV F6. There aren't millions of gauge options available and only some of them are 'cool'. I will post a pic tomorrow so you can see it in action. I'm not sure its worth the $190 its advertised for, but like I said, I got mind thrown in

Go in armed with the information to make a deal happen and lay it down. If you wave the money in front of them it's only a matter of time before someone goes, bah, we will sell it whether it's for $50 or just more numbers through the door from the suppliers. I just took information I had found in a number of threads here (thanks to those who post this info) and took some negotiating skills in. What I do realise is, we're getting ever closer to the Series II FG and the fact getting rid of stock is a high priority right now was a good time to buy the FG F6. As amazing as the F6 is, in my opinion the GT pips it for 'potential' and also raw guttural pleasure. The last thing any dealer or manufacturer wants is JUN plated cars sitting around at the end of the year. They will move them. Even now, at just under 56k I still think there was room to move but the fact is they are running a business and typically you want to maintain a good relationship with a dealer for ongoing service and warranty issues etc. We were really well serviced and looked after from the dealership and we felt comfortable with them going forward. The last thing you want is a dealer who hates you cause he made $1 from your sale. It's like complaining about a burger at Maccas, the guy on the grill is going to spit in it . Like I said, the GT is my actual 'pick' of the cars but when the prices are similar but you absolutely cannot discount the awesomeness of a F6 @ around $55k. No car comes anywhere near it for performance/awesomesauce. Once again, thanks to those who post price / date info as it helps more of us get bums in the seats of such great cars. Divi and I will post some pics up when we've got both of the cars together .

Hi timetaker, It seems you must have very advanced negotiating techniques cause I can't get them to budge lower than 57k for a shipped from FPV without leather or tint. I went in armed with your numbers and they just wouldn't go lower. I wonder if being in Melbourne (I am in QLD) there's a difference in the delivery costs and I am sure there are discrepancies in the government charges. I'm going to shop around later tomorrow at the other FPV dealerships in the hope I can get a little more out of them. Funny thing is, I am buying TWO also. I took the GT for a drive today ... I really wish I had the extra $$ ... it had me giggling like a schoolgirl. That said the F6 gave me guy cramps and is unbeatable in the value for money stakes.
