I could bang on about why anybody would pay 43k from their net cash flow when I will only pay 34k but Its clear it's because they can afford to pay for what they want and clearly I can afford to pay extra for the model colour and 0km's that I want.I am very interested to hear if anybody has purchased a new G6E Turbo Anniversary edition and what they paid because then I would know what the going price is.

Yes you are right that its about $40 a week extra or two packs of cigs a week.However over 5 years that's a little over $10k net cash. Doesn't matter which way you throw the figures its still $10k more net cash.Anyway as you said you got the colour and 0kms, but in my opinion a colour isn't worth the difference in net cash.Keeping with the original thread, I am also interested in what others are paying for a 50th edition.Dorko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cost will be long forgotten when I look in the driveway and continue to see the vehicle that I want.. no compromise.Is it an expensive paint job? yes, but it also comes with the wheels, sat nav and different seats so they help a little too (if you like these extra's which I do but that's another matter of preference). Anyways, on with the thread around what ppl paid. Edited 24/10/10 10:35 AM by harryh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got mine in the EGO color just before EDGE came out, but am really happy with the color!!As of today I racked up 10k in this car since august and it has been perfect; couldn't of asked for a more fantastic beast!!I purchased mine from Freeway Ford in Cranbourne, Victoria. I didn't add any options to the car as it pretty much has everything; I did get them to through in a Ford Racing Jacket!!Is there any sort of drive club for the G6ET (50th or not) I don't see many on the road, plenty of G6's etc.Memphis Edited 02/01/11 12:04 PM by Memphis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
