speaking of chirping third, I was driving along a familiar stretch of road this afternoon and a skyline r34 tried to give me a run.

I had my new born son in the back so it wasn't going to happen but after he realised I wasn't going to play he gave me a demo of what real power is.........

he went through a round-about at about 60km/h and launched to 180km -ish within 300m.

from behind the car stepped out between the 2-3 shift in a straight line....

very impressed......I gave him the thumbs up at the next set of lights.......also expained about the bub in the back which didn't seem to register as an excuse.........aaaah to be twenty again.......

Hey guys my dealer friend at Ford leant me a typhoon for 3 hours to test drive by my self. Well worth the test, where ever I drove I got the head turns.

The gearbox was abit clunky when it was cold but as the car warmed up it went away and was smooth and real easy to quick shift.

Power delivery was gradual it build up, not like the xr6 turbo which goes on hard. Clutch took some getting used to as its very light compared to the xr6turbo, and car absorb bumpy roads nicely.

Overall now I am thinking of getting the t56 instead of waiting for the 6speed auto to come out.

Hey guys was told by a friend a price on a black 04 plate typhoon from sydney city, employee pricing with factory rebates on 04 plate, 48,000 drive away.

could this be true? I know that employee pricing when I went in to find out was $52,500 drive away.
