I have the opportunity to buy 2013 XR 6T, 5 yr warranty, reverse camera, chrome driving lights, factory leather trim, auto, delivery ks for less than 40K?..is this a good deal?

I drive a lot on freeways but a lot in the City and am worried about the size of the car

Also is it a cop magnet to be hassled in?

Is it better to wait for the final Falcon revision in 2014?

I drive a Subaru Impreza now..nice enough car..is this a wierd change?

I have had lots of Fords:

XB GT

ZH Fairlane (that's a big car!!)

BA XR8

XT Fairmont

any thoughts please?

decent deal

if you drove the previous fords with no issues then size wont be an issue

cop magnet? depends if you drive like a fwit or not.

there may or may not be a 2014 falcon so can you live with yourself if that happens?

is liking peanut butter and jelly sammiches weird?

is it weird that I hang out in the bushes and wait for unsuspecting victims to run past and offer them a sandwich?

WOW chrome driving lights nows that's worth it all by its self.

that's a good price mate I'ld take it but at the end of the day if you want to wait for the new falcon its up to you.

Good luck!!

I am pretty sure the statement by Ford stipulated no new model in 2014. However, I think they will most likely do some revisions for an FG3 to see things out in 2016.

Decent deal. Nothing ridiculous though but worth taking if you're looking to buy one.

No way are they a cop magnet. Stock standard they look like every other xr6 out there which there are plenty of.

Going from an impreza this isn't that much bigger of a car. You'll notice worse fuel economy but will have a lot more power and a much more refined interior than the impreza

I would be buying one, because I am, just waiting on delivery. As others have said never know the long arm of the law to hassle Ford Falcon owners unless you drive like an idiot.

Been driveing an XR50 for the last 3 years with no hassells.

Price sounds good its cheaper than the one ill be getting through the Ford dealer and it getting a luxury pack so those features you mention are in there and a few more.

I would not be waiting for 2014 and definately would not wait till 2016

yes,buy it,that aint a bad deal especially if you can knock them down a bit more,xr6t's are great cars,imprezzas are as gay as the 20yr old datsuns that the import brigade gloat about.
