londas Member 29 Member For: 21y 5m 16d Posted 12/04/09 09:14 AM Share Posted 12/04/09 09:14 AM Apart from aethetics, what is the difference between the fg xr6turbo and g6et. I guess what Im getting at is does the xr6t have a much sportier feel to drive? I have driven the g6et but havnt been able to locate a xr6t. I was very impressed with the grunt, but thought it was a little soft for my liking, and am wondering whether the xr6t is a little sharper.BTW the saleperson said the xr6t and g6et were identical under the skin, which according to the ford website is not true.
