Dillz Three pedals are better then two..

Enough with the cardigan BS already, they are as quick as the XRT and F6 but a luxury sleeper version. That's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit im not looking for that again but I want it to look as good as it goes and love the understated look of the g6e turbo and with all the good bits inside, I had my choice of a xr6t or the g6e and choose the better value for money car imo. All im saying is that Jap wheels IMO dont suit a G6, because of the type of car it is, a luxury 4 door family car, that goes well. On a XR, they would suit the car and can look good. The old man comment relates to the types of buyers that Ford aimed the G6 for.. Obviously its not a blanket rule, as you and Dillz have pointed out. Rapid and Atomic are just nutters iMO lol..Dillz, the cardigan/ bowls I dont think will ever die hahaThis has gotten way off topic lol.. PS I'd love a G6T, as im gettin older its more appealing to me, enough with the boy racer look, simple and classy all the way..As I said earlier, there are heaps of good wheels for G6's mate, just got to see what YOU like..

The car generally appeals to older people........which in many ways is a good thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essgee Donating Members 52 Member For: 15y 3m 30d Gender: Male Posted 03/07/11 08:01 AM Share Posted 03/07/11 08:01 AM Quite interesting to see this topic about wheels also include comments about age and who likes what and what would suit who. I'm 49 and own an FG XR6T and certainly not lookin at dropping in to Target for a cardigan and slidiung into an G6. Everyone has their own individual taste and I think the younger guys who own G6 turbo's and like the sleeper look is awesome.My ambition once I finished with my current ride is to own an F6, they're a beautiful car.Essgee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ended up paying 40K more for a (used) Audi S4 which I think is inferior in many ways.....but his mates also think FPV are rubbish so I suppose that says everything. Older men look for different qualities. (as per G6E buyers over F6 etc etc) Edited 03/07/11 11:16 AM by CBXRT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get it.I've seen a pimpin white G6 Turbo with Dark argents cruising around my area Don't think the guy was wearing a cardi...Am I missing something?Not that I wear cardigans or drive a G6 Turbo...
