Carter_ Member 33 Member For: 14y 10m 21d Gender: Male Posted 08/03/11 06:41 AM Share Posted 08/03/11 06:41 AM Hi All, I have been a member of the site for a while but when I bought my Calais I stopped coming on. I have just ordered a G6e Turbo through work and I wanted to get your options on them. Are they as good as I have read about?My dad has a early Fg Xr6 turbo and that seems to always be broken and has sh*tty build quality, is this still the case?I have ordered a silhouette G6e Turbo with Cashmere leather. I have not been able to find any pics of this combo.Mind you I am only 21, is this too much of a grandpa car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purchased mine on the right side of 30 and there are plenty of others on here in the same boat. Don't let the age stereotype scare you - just embrace it. They are awesome vehicles. edit: you just have to get used to the jealous boy racers (see above) Edited 08/03/11 06:53 AM by tab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there are some build quality issues, however, as a complete package they ROCK. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havn't driven a turbo with the auto but I am sure it will be as good at the manual.only problem is still gotta wait approx 4 months to get it.

Nothing grandpa about it. It all comes down to how you modify it too. A G6E turbo slammed on some really nice 20's will definitely not look like a grandpa car!Enjoy your new car bud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
