homerj Member 52 Member For: 21y 1m 2d Location: Berwick,Melbourne Posted 19/12/06 08:59 AM Share Posted 19/12/06 08:59 AM Would definitely consider buying one if it came in AWD. As a standard car the Magna is actually pretty good - very under rated. But the added weight may slow those times down a bit.Used examples of the current model don't sell for much so you would want to get it pretty cheap and maybe as a company tax right off.Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exciting times ahead for 6 pot performance.Personally, people are wondering how the 200kw aurion handles itself with FWD, let along a torque thumping supercharged version. All I can hear is "computer limited torque for gears 1 & 2" ala Mazda 3 MPS.Without AWD, I wouldn't choose one of these. Its a pity cause the 380 concept looked understated yet aggressive.I think due to the sales success of the Turbo, Falcon has this segment licked. The bean counters will be happy to fund development on the '08 Falcon turbo Late model camira will be the only make without a performance 6 pot, unless it finds a home for the HFV6 Twin Turbo in commodore!

A supercharged 380 AWD would be a definate winner.But alas, it's a bum dragger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
