chooch Member 256 Member For: 21y 4d Location: Adelaide Posted 28/01/07 01:05 AM Share Posted 28/01/07 01:05 AM hey I'm just wondering if a could get a few opinionsIf you had $50k as a budget would you:A) buy a used F6, but then no extra mods.B) Band new XR6T and the left over cash spend on mods. (I can get a T on the road for $41k)..and I refuse mod a T to make it look like a F6 either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 28/01/07 01:12 AM Share Posted 28/01/07 01:12 AM If I had a budget like that I'd be looking for an F6 personally...Better interior, far and away better brakes and better resale down the track.Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XRT68 Member 49 Member For: 18y 2m 21d Posted 28/01/07 03:15 AM Share Posted 28/01/07 03:15 AM I was in the same situation late last year. I like a few extras in my cars and when I did the numbers the F6 kept jumping out of the budget. I ended up ordering an 07 XR6T Auto Ute with a Luxury Pack and passanger airbag plus a few extra dealer fit items. and F6 to the same spec was another $10k. My car wont be modified and I wasnt looking for "THE" power factor I think a well optioned XR6T is good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Member 299 Member For: 21y 7m 2d Gender: Male Posted 28/01/07 04:11 AM Share Posted 28/01/07 04:11 AM it is def. possible to get a demo f6 for less than 55, with options so id say 50 without many options is def doable in the right case ie kms/dealer/model such as runout BF not mkII..a new one would be closer to 60, but I cannot see where the value is there.I priced up a new T with all the otptions I wanted and then added the costs that I knew id do asap such as rims, some sort of kit, better seats, brakes and it came out to be around 49k LOL.. that's not even considering dealer delivery, stampt duty, rego etc etc..I then priced a few F6's with low kms (demos) and found I could get most around 52-55 with all varying options.Im very happy with my purchase of the F6 and regularly go in xr6/t and they dont feel special to me and on the odd occasions I drive them, they arent as good in the 'rounded package' idea.. interior is sub std IMHO, luxury pack is 250% a must in xr6t, wouldnt drive one without it, and even then seats brakes rims kit dont come to the table..Good luck with your choice, I know where my money would be going.. or should I say did in the exact same situation!!
