Ye again I wasn't referring to the turbo kind of power with a manual... Only the supercharged power... The delivery is very very different from the 335.

School holidays not finished yet??????

Lol im not a troll. Im 24. All im after is some advice on which ozzie car is a good base to start with. If you have no idea aboutmke why jump to conclusions? I know sierra cosworths and focus RS inside out where as I have no idea about the Falcons I have no idea which year are prone to problems etc which year came better speced hence why im asking on here?

Ive had both.6T and Charged 8.Id say run with a GT in a manual.tuned with your basic mods and you will be in love....but dont expect it to be like a chook cooker focus as they are two totally different cars.....

I wouldn't call the focus a chook cooker. That's a bit harsh lol.

For the OP.

Personally if I was looking at a manual I would not get the 6cyl turbo, the supercharged v8 on the other hand would be perfect with a manual. I love driving manual v8's, so much better than an auto v8 in my humble opinion.

And don't stress to much over the weight of these cars as they handle great, especially with a few basic mods. Sure they aren't as chuckable as a 1000kg car but they arent bad.

Whats a chook cooker? Haha

Thanks for your input mate.. Im still undecided iv been talking to simon at Nizpro and getting his feedback regarding tuning on either model he favours the F6 but that can be down to personal prefrence and what they cater more towards as a company.

Iv made an enquiry into a F6 iv seen on carsales. May need to testdrive them both before I commit myself to one.

How could you pass on the FG F6? Pick one up for $40k and spend $20k on it. It would be a beast of a car and all for the price of a stock, second hand, manual GT-P.

I agree mate, trying to find a low Km manual one is proving hard mind you.
