I know in a discussion like this you should put bias aside but asking that kind of question on a ford forum is a little bit redundant. Also, what apollo said is true. Its not really fair to compare an SS to a G6ET, they are two seperate cars marketed for different people. A fairer comparison would be the Calais V against the G6ET or the SS vs the standard XR6T.

And that's the reason for the price difference aswell, with the G6ET you are paying for luxury on top of a good performance base.

As for reliability a car will rarely ever give you no grief what-so-ever. Granted the brand new SS is the wiser choice if reliability is all you're after but you have to take into account, that car will get old too, and start to play up eventually.

All in all, it is up to you and it comes down to the age old question, which camp are you in? Blue or Red, Ford or Holden.

I think if you asked ss or g6et on a Expensive Daewoo forum, a lot of the unbiased guys would say go the g6et. It is a better package. It won't do skids like the ss, but that's not why you are buying a g6et. To put the 2 in comparison, my mate has a ss ute with all the mods without opening the engine. Mine, when it was stock beat him convincingly. He now wants a g6et. A lot of Expensive Daewoo guys that get beaten by a luxury car are left wondering why they bought a slower, less feature packed car. In holdens defence, the 6.x litre engine sound so much better than our droning 4 litre. I have a twin 3 inch and the car is embarrassing.... Until it gets on boost.
