PookeyMaster Donating Members 1,531 Member For: 13y 10m 21d Gender: Male Location: Parramatta, NSW Posted 11/11/11 03:42 AM Share Posted 11/11/11 03:42 AM cheers mate! should easy get one for that by then. sounds awesome though all the extras u get standard now. lux pack comes with sat nav now standard. still same price I think I read awhile back. im a fan of the new touch screens, works good in the territories. I assume the rest of the range will get what the terri's have with the usb plug in the centre console?Yep, the 8-inch touchscreen is the same as what's in the Terri's. The exception is the XT which has the old screen standard and you can option the new screen. If you were going to do that though, it would be cheaper to go for the XR6 (NA) with all its extra options and better retained value.Yep, the Lux Pack for the XR6T has the Satellite Navigation in it now. Reverse Sensors are standard on the XR6T and you can option in the Reverse Camera (I don't know if its on the screen like the Late model camira or in the Mirror, someone else might know). Boganspeed is right about smoke and mirrors though, they used to charge $198 to activate Auto Headlights (just flick a switch in the fuse box basically).On the G6ET, they've also added other little things like the Perimeter Alarm, Auto ON/OFF Headlights which were Dealer Fitted Accessories on the MkI. Not that I'm complaining but I would have thought it made more financial sense to offer these as Optional Factory Extra's to make easy moolah...

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 12/11/11 01:39 AM Share Posted 12/11/11 01:39 AM They could if they wound it up and went back to a 6 day week.They close for Xmas/NY.And TBH there is not much to change. It's only an upgrade. I guess it will depend more on current stock in the dealers. They're the ones paying the jig on them. So there order book will have the final say.

Shows up on screen once reverse is selected. Tiny camera mounted above number plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, only cause I'm looking at buying one next year. I don't know about dealers in general but one near me (Castle Hill) told me they would hopefully get their first showroom car in late January or early February, but they were happy to take an order for earlier delivery if I wanted to buy one. I just want to see one that isn't a photoshopped Ford pic, not actually buy one yet, sneaky sales people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
