rapid Member 19 Member For: 18y 5m 30d Posted 09/08/09 05:04 AM Share Posted 09/08/09 05:04 AM I've been a member on here for a while but just to see what all the fuss was about. Well 6 weeks ago I took delivery of my new G6ET in Velvet with Cashmere interior.I absolutely love it. I bought it from Etheridge Ford in Melbourne and drove home to Sydney the same day.What a great way to run a car in. Except for the rain for 500k's of the trip. Got out of the car and didn't even feel tired or stressed after 9 hours of driving. It is easy to see why they were voted car of the year by cars guide. Pity some of the other so called journo's didn't take their blinkers off when doing other awards. The only thing that I have done is change the window tint as the standard tint just doesn't cut it for me. The only other mod to be done (if at all) will be to lower it a little. But that is all as I am in the process of getting into another toy and that will be where my mod money goes. Bu that's another story.So I don't get lambasted for not putting up any pics here are a couple to keep you all happy. happy you like it. I know I do.A couple of pics after a wash and waxOn a recent trip down the south Coast Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/60469-new-g6et/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks nice when new though. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/60469-new-g6et/#findComment-918936 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewW Member 16 Member For: 15y 9m 5d Posted 10/08/09 10:19 AM Share Posted 10/08/09 10:19 AM Nice car and colour. I went to 3 Melbourne dealers today, and didn't see that colour anywhere. Well, after much procrastination I ordered a G6E Turbo today. I had been looking at an XR6 Turbo, but I think the resale might be a problem down the track with the current $37K XR6 special. I went for Ego, with 19 inch alloys and black interior. Sensational car for the money.I'll post for pics when I get it......
