Lightning Member 335 Member For: 22y 3m 20d Location: Perth, Western Australia Posted 04/06/03 11:17 AM Share Posted 04/06/03 11:17 AM Strange, the shift feels fine to me. But, that's coming from the AUII XR6 which, IMO, had a pig of a shift! The number of times I couldn't change down at a stop without effectively doube-declutching. I love this shift, it feels great.I also don't have the musical windscreen, just the whine of the turbo Lightning....

After a few 1000km's however it falls into gear, very enjoyable and easy to drive.

Guest Brent400 Guests Posted 09/06/03 03:25 AM Share Posted 09/06/03 03:25 AM I have a 1999 Au Forte. Got it as a demo model from Gregory's in Canberra. I hate this car and can't wait to get rid of it. When I saw the XR6T I fell in love.Placed my order for XR6t, Acid Ruch, Leather seats, SSS and premium sound in late feb. I will pickup my new beast on 20 June from John Mc Grath in Phillip. The did a better deal than Gregory's. I took one for a test drive last week and now I can hardly sleep. Can't wait to take her for a fang arount the Cotter.
