G6ET8U Playing with Sports Bikes... Silver Donating Members 1,927 Member For: 19y 6m 15d Gender: Male Location: Whistling, GTX. Posted 12/02/06 12:46 AM Share Posted 12/02/06 12:46 AM Quote Just been reading the lastest MOTOR mag and was reading the article on the new VZ SS and this thing looks like it will smoke any stock ford V8 and even stock T,s Well on paper anyway. Should make things interesting... the SS just like the T/XR8/GT/Typhoon/Tornado are now capable of some extremely quick times and some insane power levels... I still remember only 5 or more years ago 300rwkw was just unheard of in a daily driven street car... as a rule the car drove like a pig too...Now it's only 3 or 4 grand away... still maintains excellent driveability, fuel consumption and most of all reliability...Crazy!!Jack Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/23310-look-out-xr8gt/#findComment-347510 Share on other sites More sharing options...
