Still not a car to be sneezed at..If it was me I'd be going the F6.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the 5.0L S/C motor can produce a ridiculous amount of power with minimal mods also.. So really it depends what you want from it..Essentially they'll be the same car on the inside.. You're just picking which motor you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nomad6t Member 17 Member For: 18y 10m 1d Posted 13/01/13 12:57 AM Author Share Posted 13/01/13 12:57 AM Haha well cheers for info hAve had two v8s also and agree the sounds is orgasmic!! Guess I'll have to go test drive a few and decide from there... Insurances for each I'm guessing roughly the same ??? And the s/c v8 with exhaust and tune good for decent amount of kms reliably??

Can't comment on the GT but it was a pleasant suprise to save a few buckeroo's! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
