KrasH Bloody Orange Team (BOT) Donating Members 872 Member For: 21y 10m 13d Gender: Male Location: Canberra, Australia Posted 19/09/03 08:58 AM Share Posted 19/09/03 08:58 AM Today I went to the dealers to pick up my beast and what can I say. How on earth can you get a pretty heavy car to handle so damn nicely. I can't believe how accurate and responsive the steering is. I am still all fuzzy and happy after driving it around a bit. The power at the right foot is damn good. haven't given it much, but have given it the odd squirt. Each squirt threatens to give me wiplash. What a dream. What a car. I like it so much that I am very tempted to go now and go for a spin. The interior is fantastic. the leather look classy and I gotta say that I love the power udjstability of the seats hight/tilt etc. Class. I am a big boy and I have found it roomy inside and I still can't believe how good it looks. Only gripe I have (minor atm) is the dash. Blue is not my favourite colour to look at (have to squint) but I'll get used to it. The stereo is pretty impressive for a "factory" system. It's no where near the clarity and brillience of my Pulsar SSS's after market system, but I am impressed with it anyways. What else can I say. Anyways, I'm off for another drive and I'll have photo's taken very soon (as soon as we have daylight).Damn happy.

Yep, that could've been me that's about the time I went up northbound on northbourne, with my dad as a passenger. Just came back from a little drive and filling up the tank and I gotta say. Everybody is staring at me or am I just imagining it. Oh well, fun to drive, can't wait to run it in a bit. already clocked about 150 on the beast. tomorrow I plan to break the 500km barrier and then I'll start having some real fun Oh and I am trying my best not to grin, but I can't help it Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/6299-picked-up-the-xr6t/#findComment-51433 Share on other sites More sharing options...
