WKB Member 2 Member For: 13y 5m 5d Posted 29/07/11 02:48 AM Share Posted 29/07/11 02:48 AM My first post!I was looking at a BF 07' XR6T for $22k + onroads, however I've been enticed by a vehicle that has shown up locally at a dealer for $26,500 + on roads for a 09' FG XRT6 with bluetooth and Premium sound pack.. Would be jumping at this, however it has 95,xxxKM on the clock, and you can see it's not been lovingly treated in it's short life - Possible a lease car, or something?Dealer says they can clean up the marks on the body, so I guess that shouldn't be a problem..Still under new car warranty obviously, but only until it hits 100k :(Would I be mad to look at this car seriously? Should I just get a low km BF Mk2?I drove this FG (and a stock new FG XR6), and to me (who has relatively little experience) it felt fantastic. But is this so high that it's not worth considering?Need some help/suggestions!Cheers,Wade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your budget can stretch to $30k then look at FGs. That is alot of km's for a '09 model FG.... My bet is that it is an ex-rental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WKB Member 2 Member For: 13y 5m 5d Posted 29/07/11 05:25 AM Author Share Posted 29/07/11 05:25 AM It was a black in colour..For me it's tempting because of the packs..The BF Mk2 is 60,000km and looks pretty good, apart from some cracking (?) in the 'metal' look part of the interior door handles.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brods Member 433 Member For: 14y 5m 4d Gender: Male Posted 29/07/11 06:34 AM Share Posted 29/07/11 06:34 AM I got the same interior cracking in my bf2. Mate a clean black bf is so hot! Some nice rims and lowering and she will be looking boss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go the bf or save a little more and get a low km FG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
