The motor had plenty of go and the gearbox(manual) shifted really nice, it also had a good soundtrack(whoosh,pfffft,whoosh,pfffft etc) for a stock engine and exhaust!If I was being picky the only thing I disliked was the instruments were a little hard to read(I must be getting old).As for the FG XR6 turbo(which I haven't driven yet, although I've ridden in it a couple of times) my other brother inlaw has put a higher bid in at $10,500(yeah I know, zero class) and if his wife lets him buy it then he can have it(I'm not getting into a bidding war) plus the way he changes cars , he will probably offer it to me in 6 months for about $8,000, which is cool with me!CHEERS!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wife took the FG for a drive yesterday and she loved it , the car is immaculate(my brother inlaw has always been seriously anal about all the cars he's owned)So I will pickup both cars sometime next week, whoohoo!!! To say I'm TOTALLY STOKED would be an understatement! Will post pic's when I"ve got both cars.THANKS again guys for the support, CHEERS! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
