Guest boreded Guests Posted 29/08/04 03:01 AM Share Posted 29/08/04 03:01 AM About to order a series 2 and have the usual "what color" problem! Anyone got any photos of an XR6T with the factory 18's optioned on in white or red? I haven't seen a single white or red XR on the road, let alone with 18's! All the dealers I have checked so far only seem to have the new bright colors? Or even point me to a dealer in Melbourne that has one in the lot?FWIW, the order at present is looking like the dark silver/grey with 18's, unless red or white can sway me Ford's website is pretty poor in this regard, they should at least show decent sized photos of the cars in each color.

A bunch of us from the forum went for tour through Ford factory and FPV and didn't see a single red Falcon XR or even XT. Vixen is the latest version of red, my car is Venom. Vixen is more orange.

Guest boreded Guests Posted 29/08/04 06:46 AM Share Posted 29/08/04 06:46 AM (edited) I didn't realise they had changed the red. Definately don't like the orange so if its not the same red Ford has been using for the last few years, I'll have to scratch it off the list!

Guest boreded Guests Posted 01/09/04 11:06 PM Share Posted 01/09/04 11:06 PM Finally saw a red XR6. Old red and new red side by side, what a diff!!! What has ford done? The old red was fantastic, the new one is really dull well imo quite bad in comparison. At this stage Lightening Strike with 18's is still on the cardsBut I still haven't any white ones, have you got any pics yet FatBAt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, have to agree there, not just because I own a Venom. If I was buying again today I wouldn't get a Vixen, quite possibly a Lightning Strike as well. Maybe a Rapid (yellow) but would need to see it in the flesh so to speak before I parted with any hard earned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
