XR6T4ME Member 186 Member For: 21y 7m 27d Location: Melbourne Posted 24/10/03 06:49 AM Share Posted 24/10/03 06:49 AM I'm back !!!! And now I want to just go out again for another spin in the Blueprint Beast. I picked her up last night and found every excuse in the book just to prolong the experience. Sitting in the buckets, behind the thick rimmed Sports Steering wheel with SSS is just like playing F1 at the local arcade parlours. ONLY MUCH BETTER !!!! What a sweet note, what a ride, what a sweet sound from the prestige sound, what a feeling, I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THIS!!!! It is sooooooohard backing off while running it in, you just want it to go and go and go and go. But I must treat her nice, hard but gentle these early days beforeI get to enjoy it more after hitting 2-3000 kms.Kitty's "bouncing" is very similar to the excitement I feel right now.....damn it is hard looking down at her from my office window all alone ....... I have to go for another spin ..............see ya............

Donating Members 1,121 Member For: 21y 7m 24d Gender: Male Location: Sydney, NSW Posted 24/10/03 02:46 PM Author Share Posted 24/10/03 02:46 PM Just got back from my "shakedown cruise" with my new baby. There's no other way to express myself.... "That was so fantastic!!!"A night time jaunt up and back on the F3 Freeway.... Man, it was a dream run. Wow!Now for the all important pics. I've put up a little photo album on my website. Piccies of my baby just before I drove her off the lot... Now for some personal observations....* Don't have my Nokia Car Kit installed yet. Apparently there is a shortage of kits in the Sydney area.* Spent about 30 mins chatting with the owner of the dealership I got my baby from. He's got a beautiful Black GT-P sitting out the back. Got a free one-year membership to the FPV-Tickford Club and a six-pack of beer glasses.* Although the Carry Bars are a useful option, IMHO they just don't look right on my baby. To be removed in the morning. Good thing they are so easy to get on and off when needed.* The GPS Alarm System is way cool. * Those Leather seats are just superb! Most definately worth it!* The Premium Audio CD player got itself into a weird state just as I got home and started spitting out all my CDs (which were all quite hot I might add!). Will have to keep an close eye on that. Otherwise, the sound is damn good for a car audio system.* Put about 300km on the clock and was getting ~10.5L/100km on the freeway according to the trip computer. Not bad at all for a car that isn't even 12 hours old yet!I obviously have some manual reading to do as well as doing the "right things" in order to run in the engine properly. Just gonna have so much fun! Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/7063-let-the-sleepless-nights-begin/page/4/#findComment-60027 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HocuSChrisT Guests Posted 24/10/03 04:22 PM Share Posted 24/10/03 04:22 PM 3 weeks and 2 days till I come home and pick mine up. Whilst the wait is killing me, I must say, I am more anxious to return to my darling wife to be, miss her too much.
