Romulus Donating Members 1,279 Member For: 20y 4m 3d Location: Perth Posted 23/05/06 11:15 AM Share Posted 23/05/06 11:15 AM Yep, signed up for one last Saturday. The boss made me do it! The manual had to go It just so happened a Bionic F6 arrived at Centre Ford on Wednesday afternoon, and I made the call on Friday. The colour doesn't phase me, although my preference was for Mercury Silver. However, I'm sure the colour will grow on me. The missus (boss) came in on Saturday to sign the contract with me, but she saw the GT-P and had her mind set on that. After a couple of hours of negotiating she realised the F6 was the better chioce.I'll carry over some of the things I had on the XR6T, such as injectors, fuel pump, Harrop springs and Bilstein shocks and my ROH 19" wheels. Lucky me ordered a Nizpro kit a couple of weeks for the XR6T, guess I'll just have to fit it to the F6 I'll be picking it up on Friday Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/25567-just-bought/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

In light of the low 12's / hi 11's being run with the BF 6 speed auto's I have much confidence that the car will be a rocket when it's finished.BTW, is your mug shot on the board at Centre Ford with the other photo's?
