XR_Jet Member 69 Member For: 19y 2m 17d Location: South of the Border Posted 20/03/07 06:59 AM Share Posted 20/03/07 06:59 AM Doesnt look too bad.....Although this is just another more expensive sports sadan that I will be hunting down & destroying ..... lastest casualty - VE GTS box It hurts me to embarrass these guys, especially when there wives are in the passenger seat Im guessing it will be in the same pricing bractet as the F6, perhaps a tad under.Jet.

They do have Prodrive helping out so we do know not to expect too much...XRs as we know have different trim, different F & R bumpers, bodykit, sports suspension, bigger brakes etc etc Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/33451-toyota-aurion-trd-to-take-on-hsv-fpr/#findComment-511239 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil F6 Donating Members 830 Member For: 19y 5m 12d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 20/03/07 09:28 AM Share Posted 20/03/07 09:28 AM 250kW and 400Nm are expected outputs for Aurion. Too bad it's fwd, so I couldn't give a flying fark, same with the supercharged 380.Why do these nitwits persist in fwd in large cars and then wonder why they can't compete. Toyotas just lucky fuel went through the roof.
