So it will depend on whether there is a manual option available for the luxo-barge or if its an auto only model... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benny Member 1,869 Member For: 21y 4m 26d Gender: Male Location: Newcastle Posted 27/02/08 03:44 AM Share Posted 27/02/08 03:44 AM Like the old Fairmonts which didn't have an LSD I doubt the new one will either. I think this is due to the traction control system that is used. I think it's a four channel system which will allow abs to be applied to each rear wheel independantly to prevent loss of traction.Just my thoughts.
