Couldn't wait for a 22K bargain I am not that patient, plus there don't seem to be that many out there. If all goes well I should be driving home my black 07 with ZF six speed tomorrow.

(Excuse me, do you know where they sell 98 RON, in this area.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that staying off the boost?Do you have shares in an oil company?So what is your definition of poor fuel economy? 100 litres per /100 KM?Just curious.Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind it's off boost for more than 60% of the day, so there are stages where I get do fuel economy but that is at the cost of exhilaration.Mmm, 4 tanks a week; maybe I should flash the soft tune.............Nahh!!!!

xr6t 4 jam Member 9 Member For: 15y 11m 4d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 11/07/09 11:28 AM Share Posted 11/07/09 11:28 AM Definately a fantastic car. I got an auto sedan in the ego colour. Black on black interior and bluetooth fitted aftermarket. 18" alloys.I bought it under the friends of Ford promo so had to buy what was on the showroom floor. If I had the chance I would have got the premium sound just for the colour screen...Run in on the expressway was my concern.. I basically varied the speed and punched it hard for the first 300k's then got sick of that and used cruise control for the next 1500k's. (on and off) That's what worries me.Mate, top stuff!In getting the bluetooth fitted aftermarket, did you also get the Ipod integration (they call it the technology pack I think). In either case and if you have sh*te loads of music, you wanna get yourself Ipod integration so that you can control your Ipod through the head unit rather than from the Ipod itself. You can off course get an FM transmitter to run your Ipod through an FM frequency - all depends what you are after.As others have mentioned, I would not be concerned about the run in with the cruise control on / off. In a similar manner, I had a trip down to Sydney at xmas. The trip down so me running the motor in by changing between 5th / 6th gear (I got a manual) every 15 minutes.Pictures look great too mate - enjoy.Myself, I got the nitro colour, tinted windows, the silver on black interior and premium sound with technology pack. Even the wife & kids love the car - the kids (love em) call it a racing car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnie9866 Member 9 Member For: 15y 5m 16d Posted 11/07/09 08:58 PM Share Posted 11/07/09 08:58 PM Great car mate, can you post a new pic with the window tint? I pick up mine in late August from Brisbane. Black Luxury pack,Tech pack and Tint.I just have reservations about the % tint I should get. The guy at Tint A Car said street legal is 35%. I have a vixen BA MKII with 15% and have never been pulled over for the tint. Tint a car has 17% available at my own risk. As long as a black car with dark tint isn't a cop magnet?? Any thoughts???
