With the turbo constantly whistling in my ears it, I reckon it won't be long before I get a speeding ticket. My last one was 18 years ago!!!

Thanks Mack. Actually the Honda Euro, Liberty GT and Mazda6 were quite good drives. But luckily I drove the G6ET last and there was no contest after that!

Gets delivered in 3 weeks and can't wait! Also agree with comments from thorxrt6 - is a great package. I fell over the fence after driving Holdens for the last 10 years - HSV's, SS's and recently the Calais V. Looking forward to learning a bit more about the mods available for the engine. GeoffI thought about the black one as well. But I went with white purely because of safety. I lost counts how many times people were trying to t-bone me in my previous black cars in roundabouts at night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronburgundy I love gooold member Donating Members 1,222 Member For: 16y 10d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne (west) Posted 16/03/09 03:30 AM Share Posted 16/03/09 03:30 AM I'm not a big fan of white cars personally - though having said that the G6ET is at least palatable I think. Not terrible at all.I also think it's funny this thing has a 5 star safety rating; one must be very careful in the wet (as I found out last weekend) as the slightest over-depression of the loud pedal has the rear-end going walkabout. I don't think it helps that the cheap ba$tard dealer put Traxxions on the rims. Get what you pay for I guess - will be buying some proper good rubber when these things run out of tread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never heard of Traxxions tyres. Is it another Chinese tyre brand like Wan Li? If so steer clear... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
