Alright - I'm very close to putting in an order for a "T"

Boringly enough, I want a white one.

I've seen oval FPV badges on some, but not on most - what's the go there?

There are a myriad of options to choose from. Which ones to get?

What would you experienced owners recommend?

Rate your best options and why - price too if you can remember ballpark

Cheers

Very nice.

Are those Expensive Daewoo drivers in the background admiring your Beast? :)

I actually asked the price on the XR8 bonnet and it was something insane like $3000 !!!! :spoton:

haha I think they are ford drivers, it was at the last brisbane cruise.

re the XR8 bonnet, you can pick em up for $800 carbon fibre. Give JR a PM, he got one on his XR6.

Hey XLR8ED, that car is AWESOME :spoton:

The FPV badges would have been done aftermarket. Although every T does go to FPV for some finishing off, they dont get the badges (for what they're worth :spoton: )

l would order premium brakes and the Luxury pack, but l dont know what your budget is!!

Dont get a manual unless you are happy to risk ending up with a car with excessive driveline shunt. Trust me it puts a major dampener on the car. If you are going for an auto this isnt something to worry about. Iff you do want a manual l would only buy a manual perofmrance ford these days if it was a demo and l could drive it for a day before handing over the $$.

Cheers

White aint boring man.

I know. :)

I've driven a white EF for the past 7 years, and a white XF the 4 years before that.

I like the understated "coolness" of bright white.

When I first saw blueprint, that was THE colour I wanted - that was when I first saw it in MOTOR on the TE50..... but now having seen so many of them (blueprints) around, the lust has died down - I imagine in a couple of years I'll be totally neutral to it.

I keep my cars for a long time - so I want a colour I can live with and still love, not a fad colour like the ones that lot sh!t hot today, but not so ina couple of years.

Reminds me of the '80's pastels phenomena LOL

What do you actually get in the Luxury pack?
