thorxr6t Member 91 Member For: 21y 18d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 23/08/09 11:21 PM Share Posted 23/08/09 11:21 PM Congrats. Given the state of the economy and a year of fg production, now is probably the best time to buy; both price and quality wise.The G6ET is my first ford ever and I think my blood is slowly turning blue like yours!
