Performance is why we buy cars and if you want V8 performance - buy an SS.I will not dispute the the xr6T is a good car but we are talking about the 8 cylinder variants.Do yourselves a favour and go have an UNBIASED drive in one of these things and an xr8 back to back - only the ford obsessed would stay true.Just my 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vid review (the subject of the thread, not XR8 vs SS) was a POS, wasnt even an XR8 in a number of the shots!!!!!

Anyway where is the RS4. Of those 4 cars the VE GTS is my pick. I don't care what anyone says, the VE look sh*t hot except for the front flares, too big. Still bought an F6 though.
