Thanks Cobrav8 that was very helpfull. I think I will get a XR6T or yeah you are right I will spend the rest of my days wishing I had. Im looking at spending $25.000 so I will see what I can get. My XR6 is a manual and I would like to get another but I heard the manuals are a bit clunky and that the autos with S/Shift are pretty good. Thanks again for your help.

Hi all, what an awesome site. Im from NZ and I currently drive a 95 EF XR6 which has been an great car for the 4 years I have owned it but I think its time to move up to the BA series. I have been looking at 2003 models but I am a bit unsure if I sould get a standard XR6 or the XR6 turbo and yes I do realise this is an XR6 turbo dedicated forum. I have read a lot of reveiws but just thought someone on this forum might be able to help me a bit more. what I would like to know is... Is the XR6 turbo as reliable as the standard XR6? (any issues with the turbo engine) and what is the difference in fuel consumption, I realise it would be a bit more when you put your foot down and the turbo kicks in but just when sticking to speed limits around town/city?, which is about 60km/h here in NZ. Last thing is speed, from what I have read. My 95 EF XR6 can do 0 - 100km/h in 7.5 sec an 03 BA XR6 can do 0 - 100km/h in 8.0 sec (That makes my XR6 quicker than a BA XR6?) and the 03 BA XR6T 0 - 100km/h in 6.0 sec Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks Jason.
