I got an F6 Typhoon RSPec back in Feb 2008, wrote it off in Sept 2009. Got a stupid 2000 VT 5.7 SS for the time being (terrible car), and now am trading it in for a brand new 2010 Black XR6 Turbo. Due to my dad's discount, got it for $43,250 drive away! (Not including a trade in) haahahahha in one year, I won't lose much at all. Hopefully picking it up soon, will post some pics when I do pick her up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought I would chime in since my lease paper just got approved.Ordered a black XR6T 50th Anniversary with Reverse Camera, 2300kg tow pack (gone for the hayman reece load levellers) so I can still tow my boat around, Prestige Sunroof and tinted windows. Dealer already has the car I want in their holding yard and were kind enough to reserve it for me whilst I got my lease paper work done.Only bad news is I have to wait until early November for my current lease to expire. What a torture, knowing I could have my car almost any day but have to wait another month... ah well.Cheers,Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ummmmmed and errrrred about this for a while but 80% of all my cars have had sunroofs, so I couldn't help myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(must have been built over a few friday arvos) that would explain why it rode like a go cart.anyone else had this problem yet or recived a letter from ford?

Having also owned one of the first BA XR8's I am impressed with the improvements Ford has made in the technology department. Especially like the many configurable options in the car (first time I can remember having to read the owners manual)Will post some pics shortly, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
