Picked up my new car the other day - BF XR6 Turbo.

I have to say it's a damn nice car, better fit and finish, better ride, better power, better handling, better seats, better stereo.....hell, better EVERYTHING than the AU.

Hell yes. Isn't that why everyone buys a T, they're so easy to work.
au, where are you going champ. au, as far as I am concerned, was rubbish. the Expensive Daewoo vt killed it in every way.
I went from the VT to the AU. I would say that it was the other way around.
I remember that you were looking to lease one last year
Yes, it is a lease car but I'm going to keep this one, so I don't have to worry about only doing mods that can be undone when I give the car back.

The Good

- the turbo :dance:

- the seats. Nice and snug, and lower than the AU

- the refinement. Finally and Australian built car without squeaks, rattles or other noises. Could hear a mouse fart even when travelling on the highway.

The Bad

- no quad-round headlights

- the accelerator and brake are very close together - I've got big hoofs and I often clip the brake when I am going for the accelerator.

The Mods (to be)

- edit

- carputer. I plan to install a computer in the car to play MP3's, DVD's etc. Also have Satnav, Internet access, games, you name it.

- air intake. Possibly the APS airbox setup (swap the airbox and battery) APS intercooler, plenum change.

- the exhaust. 4" Dump pipe, SMB metal cat, haven't decided on the rest of the system yet.

- lights. Put Phillips 'Plus 50' globes in. Change foglights to driving lights (only come on when on high beam)
