camdawgs Member 49 Member For: 13y 11d Posted 26/11/11 12:11 AM Share Posted 26/11/11 12:11 AM Hay guys im at my final stage of purchasing my car and having a hard time deciding btween to vehicles.both are stock standard. vehicle 1 is bf 2007 typhoon r spec with close to 100000km on the clock.comes with leather sunroof. 19" rims(not the dark atgens but the more aggresive looking of the two other silver typhoon rims.6 spd auto. this car is priced at 29k from a dealer so might be able to haggle.Car 2 is a bf 2006 typhoon wiyh 45000 on da clock. 1 owner ( older owner).prem sound and tint windows.it comes with imo the worst of the 3 typhoon rims.he is after 32k.6spd auto.private sellerboth cars are ego( metallic grey in colour)the real thing for me to consider is the km...is it worth pAying the extra cash for the less appealing car(not by much).my current falcon.ef 95 manual has close to 350000 on the odo and still running pretty damn well. I mean ive replaced a fair few things on her and definetly not given it an easy life but no massive money drains. and this is from a motor with technogy that is 15+ years old.My plan will be to keep it relatively stock for the first year or two and then maybe dispose if it an upgrade or keep it for a few.more and get a mild tune to around 300rwkwjust rely want a heads up in whether all these extra km on vehicle 1 is going to run me inti trouble in the long run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camdawgs Member 49 Member For: 13y 11d Posted 26/11/11 07:59 AM Author Share Posted 26/11/11 07:59 AM Unfortunately cash wont permit any major mods within the first year of purchase! Atm im leaning towards the one with more km... I can just get a warranty for the first year.I have not heard of any major dramas with these cars..And if that typhoon for 27 is from a dealer mind hooking me up with the number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camdawgs Member 49 Member For: 13y 11d Posted 26/11/11 08:43 AM Author Share Posted 26/11/11 08:43 AM they really just dont do it for me...I love the aggresive stance of the BF's and the "Cool" points I get for driving a FPV.the FG's just remind me of another fleet car that all look the same :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
