FPV F6 vs FGX xr6 turbo

[stewroberto]

I have an option of 2 cars im incredibly stuck on...
2008 FPV f6 with 100,000km ($26,000)
or
2015 FGX xr6 turbo with 50,000km ($30,000)

The FPV f6 will retain a lot of its value and its already modified a bit and making 300rwkw (about $2500 worth of mods), and it has brembo brakes and simply the FPV badge.
Where as the FGX is the newer car, under warranty, and its just a fresh new car that not many people have atm. And I really do love the new FGX front design with the lights.

Where as the fpv's have been around for a while now and every person has modded them and stuff, so I can be a bit more original and stand out more in the fgx?

I have driven both and they both drive really well. Just unsure which one to buy. I do plan on keeping the car for a while.
Just wondering of the 10 year old FPV is too old now, and whether its 'smarter' tobuy the new car despite it being much more subtle than the FPV. Eventually I will modify both and want them to stand out as much as possible.
So torn apart help!!!!!!!!!

Smart move is to buy the FGX, but I would buy the FPV. F6  has bigger turbo to start.....

Get the newer car in this case I say.

 

old cars suck, everything starts to go wrong on them.

 

deep down I'd want the F6 too but you really are best to get the newer car.

[stewroberto]

is the FGX worth the extra $4 grand to go slower and be less equipped but it is then a newer car

Pretty soon you would end up spending lots on the F6 to maintain it.

p>Yep, its an abusive love affair with some of these older cars now.  It's still cheaper than a wife or girlfriend, but not by much

Maybe try and find a newer FG F6

Sounds like you answered your own question here.

[bossmang]

if your willing to spend up to 30k on the fgx, why dont you find a newer F6? for same money?

 

either way you cant go wrong.

 

dont worry about which has a bigger turbo, you will upgrade both in the end anyways.

Look for 30K F6. Has the bigger turbo which is capable of close to 500rwkw. The little boy (baby turbo) runs out of puff.....
