Posted 12/02/06 12:53 AM Share Posted 12/02/06 12:53 AM I own a BA T but if I had the choice I'd get a Phoon... what options does the runout Phoon have? What colour is it?What is the difference in insurance of a T vs a Typhoon?My insurance is just over $1000 a year, rating 1 no accident history...Jack Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/23312-bf-xr6t-or-run-out-ba-tuff-phoon/#findComment-347511 Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that he will keep his T3 - a no-brainer!

XRQTR Member 34 Member For: 19y 7m 2d Posted 12/02/06 12:21 PM Share Posted 12/02/06 12:21 PM If he's looking to trade in a T3 on a XR6T he needs his head read, the T3 will hold its value better than a XR6T. However if he is looking at the Phoon then yes he will be heading in the right direction, as for options he can get dealer fitted, being a runout they would be more keen to deal on the F6 so would be throwing more freebies at him.
