HugeRambo Member 8 Member For: 17y 9m Location: Darwin Posted 07/07/07 09:14 AM Share Posted 07/07/07 09:14 AM Hilooking at buying a N/A ford falcon, cant afford an XR6 though.options that I like seem to be either a 2004 BA Falcon XT with 41000kms or a 2005 BA Futura with 62000kms as they are both the same price. have driven a futura but not an xt. is there much difference? doesn't seem to be a great deal from what I saw when checking them out today, so considering going for the lower kays xt.any thoughts guys?cheers,Andy.

HugeRambo Member 8 Member For: 17y 9m Location: Darwin Posted 07/07/07 05:34 PM Author Share Posted 07/07/07 05:34 PM MoreHPformyXR6im pretty sure they are both straight BA MkIs even though the Futura was first registered in 2005I am tempted to go with the xt, because although the futura has alloys, I will change them anyway, so other than that I cant recall much difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any extra that come with ether car that would make a difference say premium sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamw Member 143 Member For: 20y 5m 10d Location: Darwin Posted 08/07/07 02:11 AM Share Posted 08/07/07 02:11 AM just make sure you're getting a good deal on the car you buy.. so you won't get hurt too bad on resale if you upgrade to the xr6t later.about $13k sounds right for cars at that spec with those k's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any extra that come with ether car that would make a difference say premium sound.no both have std basic sound and ICC.on these replies it looks like the xt is going to be the winner because of the low kays. now just have to wait until the middle of the week to get back from camping to go buy it.
