Car is fantastic, looks awesome, goes very well. It's definitely not lacking in power as I thought it might. Very quiet, good on fuel. All in all, very good value for money for a family sedan. 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88330-fg-ecoboost-engine-vs-4-litre-na/page/3/#findComment-1481349 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id expect that to drop a fair bit though, as with any new car you want to see what it goes like for the first few drives.

FPV TRANNY Im the one and only Donating Members 3,557 Member For: 20y 3m 20d Gender: Male Location: In my house Posted 06/07/14 03:26 AM Share Posted 06/07/14 03:26 AM They reckon that the Ecoboost 4 is similar in performance to the I6. Well I watched an FG XR6 na run consistant high 14,s down the strip last night, so if the ecoboost can do that then it makes the old BA XR6T look very average.
