Unless it's a bf2 zr6t, the phoon has a stronger bottom end, better brakes, the interior, bodykit, and wheels. Xr6t's are getting cheaper though, and the savings can be enough to make a nicely modded T. If you want to push over 400rwkw ild go the phoon if you could afford, or bf2 xr6t and spend some money on the brakes.

discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 17y 5m 6d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 21/08/11 03:05 PM Share Posted 21/08/11 03:05 PM There's a chance the phoon may have been looked after better being a more exclusive car, but this certainly isn't a sure fire bet.Going FPV gets you a lot of goodies such as the rims and more importantly brakes, and you're sure to get the nicer interior as well.If you're on a real budget go the XR and spend on mods, that's what I did...but still paid 28k for it hahaha (1 yr old with 37,000km, 1 owner - the police). Has been great!!What sort of price differences are you seeing?

XRTfortheBooks, the Typhoon is a better car sure (brakes in particular), but whether its worth the extra $$ is personal preference......for me its no, but then I like my cars very discreet so I'm a little biased. The extra exclusivity is worth $$ to some buyers Edited 22/08/11 08:02 AM by CBXRT Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76579-bf-typhoon-in-comparison-to-bf-xr6t/#findComment-1135253 Share on other sites More sharing options...
