turbotrana Member 2,586 Member For: 21y 9m 21d Gender: Male Posted 14/06/03 02:55 PM Share Posted 14/06/03 02:55 PM Ford XR6 by far. The IRS setup on the Late model camira is in my opinion a discrace where as Fords IRS setup is done correctly. Ford has got its styling correct this time with the BA whereas the VY rear end just looks out of place. The N/A motor of the inline 6 is far superior than the pushrod V6 in the Commode in terms of power and smoothness. The V6 has always been a rough motor from day one esp at idle. I think the Commde has had its day and the Falc should start getting the major market share this year.You will kick yourself in years to come as you may end up with your dads car in the years to come. Remember if its a N/A XR6, its still not difficult to turbocharge as both cars are much the same mechanically (that's another story) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love whipping there butts at traffic lights!!!! More fun for me. Just ask him if he want a V8 wannabe (Commodre S) or a V8 killer in the Turbo XR6.
