In honesty, I think the G6ET's look the goods - Not keen on the XT, XR6, XR6T, XR8... Do like the F6's as well, but a G6ET is not for me and I can't afford a new F6.

Well hold on you just missed what I said didnt you,,,, That wasnt my quote (dont like anything about the fg's- THAT WAS NVT's quote), I said between a f6-bf or a xr6 fg id go bf, I dont like fg xr6's, never said anything bad about the g6e, nothing wrong or contradicting about what I said mate, I think the g6e would suit his mrs from what he said and the bf2 phoon would suit for him... FG is a good car, just in my personal oppinion lacked a fair bit in the xr's, I didnt like the interior etc and the bf in my oppinion is nicer for the coinage....Basically to summarize on both accounts I bitched on FG XR6's nothing contradictory there Oh, and you call that hard???? The only person who does me hard is jet, and I like it! Edited 17/04/11 09:09 AM by Fluffy Mc D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vibe im getting from your posts, is that's what you want.It's your car at the end of the day if you dont like the looks of the FG then so be it.SO go for it!!! and let the pic's flow onto the forums.

Dillz Three pedals are better then two.. Donating Members 15,637 Member For: 17y 8m 18d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 17/04/11 10:28 AM Share Posted 17/04/11 10:28 AM Hey guys,Dillz, A BF II Phoon is absolutely nothing like a 1st series BA... Better engine, rims, brakes, gearbox, body kit, options etc (I know you know mate, but to me they're not even in the same league...)I'm thinking just to get used to the power, probably going fuel pump, injectors, Xcal and tune. See how I like it and how the car responds, then adding the exhaust and IC/piping/intake kit after.There's not one thing I like about the FG's... I hate the stock rims and the car doesn't have the road presence that the BF's had, although they are very sleek. Even if they drive like an absolute dream, that is literally the only thing going for them in my eyes.I know I can change the brakes, lights, rims and mod, but I don't have the money for that. There are only povo pack stockies around for low 30's - I don't want a chaser and I hate white and silver... Mid 30's for a nicer one is over $7K more over a BF II phoon... It's just not winning me over... And at the end of the day, it's just an XR6...Maybe mate but they still look the same, and that look is extreeeeeeeeeemly dated. Plus a stock FGT will own christ out of a BF "FPV" F6, (to sane speeds) so it's not really an FPV anymore is it?Brakes asside I'd take my car over a BF F6 any day of the week... 100% better interior, better front end, better intake, better tune, newer look... etc etcMuch love and respect for the B series but there is no comparison. End of story.PS: Eat sht tab... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A G6ET vs a BFII phoon is a different story all together. That's a much harder choice for me than the FG XR6T vs a BF II phoon, which is what the thread was asking about. The G6ET is all class and as I said, If I'm lucky I'll end up with both!Dream on. Funny thing is many have regurgitated the same bile but then get an FG and can't stop raving about how great they are. Chalk and cheese.PS: Hi Dillz I know Tab, I have heard that a lot. I didn't mean for this to turn into a sh*tfight... Just wanted some honest opinions, and tbh the way people rave about the FG's (even thought I'm not a huge fan of the FG XR6T aesthetically) it was worth asking around for some opinions. That's for the mrs, XtRmn8 - She's keen on the 'classier' look over the 'sportier' look. Trying to convince her to get a G6ET, so maybe I'll get the best of both worlds Well hold on you just missed what I said didnt you,,,, That wasnt my quote (dont like anything about the fg's- THAT WAS NVT's quote), I said between a f6-bf or a xr6 fg id go bf, I dont like fg xr6's, never said anything bad about the g6e, nothing wrong or contradicting about what I said mate, I think the g6e would suit his mrs from what he said and the bf2 phoon would suit for him...

The only person who does me hard is jet, and I like it! Yeah fluffy, that's what I meant (even though I said FG's, I didn't mean all of them) I agree that the FGXR6 look is not rally my thing. Thanks I really think you should get the F6. The vibe im getting from your posts, is that's what you want.It's your car at the end of the day if you dont like the looks of the FG then so be it.SO go for it!!! and let the pic's flow onto the forums.Done mate! Like I said, it might end up that we have both a BF II phoon and a G6E turbo. Seriously didn't mean to start so much sh*t.Thanks everyone!Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just find it generally a bit short-sighted when people discount the FG for it's 'lack of cred/presence' (whatever that is?) but at least you're looking at it subjectively.At the end of the day go with whatever floats your boat.PS: you Dilly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
