It says there MP3? I downloaded them from the net, then burnt them to disc with windows media player?

I'm pritty sure Windows Media Player converts MP3's to WMA's befor it burns. I could be wrong.

Hi SENNA,

Your replies to all posts have been heaps of help. Thanks. I have a question regarding the sound of the XR6T. I will be getting a manual FG XR6T in june and am debating wether I will spend a bit of money on a bigger cold air intake and filter. What the XR6T induction sound like? Can you actually here the turbo spooling up and when u get of the gas is there a "blow off" sort of sound. I dont mean really loud but just a sound to remind you its a turbo? If not do you think a CAI would do the trick? Keeping in mind I dont want a car people here miles away. Just a nice quiet woosh would be good. Th other think is In the FG XR6T ute, is the only way to get premiuim screen, gettin the luxury package?

Thanks

Ben

FG - the turbos have a great exhaust note, but with the new NVH refinements, there isn't alot of induction noise from inside the cabin, not sure about outside though.

In regards to the Premium sound, the Luxury Pack is your only way of getting the colour screen yes, you can still get the 6-stack prestige sound for $700

yeah mate it would make a difference, the general consensus is that a f6 lower intake is the go, that or change to the pod style intake.

There has been weight reduction in certain areas, however the overall kerb weight is slightly higher. For example the new Virtual Pivot Control link suspension is 22kg lighter than the old system, and the petrol I6 engines are around 11kg lighter by using the composite intake manifold.

So what can I get as a trade in on a white XR6T, one owner, log books, 86000Ks, original factory condition, never been raced on a FG XR6T?

Overall Impressions: As a whole the FG is a very good progression for the Falcon and I have no doubt it is the best Falcon Ford has ever put together. The new single press body panel is very rigid by using a Boron component in the steel. The single press body panel also improves the fit and finish of the exterior body panels, panel gaps are almost perfect all around - a big call I know! The total feel I got from the FG was that familiar falcon feel, I knew where I was and was very comfortable with the dynamics of the car. As a salesman I am pretty critical of what I sell, so for me to be excited about this vehicle is a big thing, it really does impress me and I can't wait for the rest of you to drive the car because it does everything we wanted it to and more.

The very first pilot build car from over 18 months ago had better panel fit accuracy than the production BF did at the time, and it was the first one off the line. that's shows how far they have come in terms of dimensional accuracy of the body panels.
