Guest LionHeart Guests Posted 05/11/02 10:38 PM Share Posted 05/11/02 10:38 PM OK...The XR6 comes with Nothing.. No LSD, No Tract Control..The XR6T comes with Standard LSD.Trac Control is not a standard on the Turbo.So those who have ordered the Turbo like me will get LSD on it.

Was the car you drove an auto or manual? The Traction control is only available on autos according to specs at www.newfalcon.com.au Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mondie Firm Member Donating Members 2,924 Member For: 22y 4m 10d Location: Adelaide Hills Posted 08/11/02 04:56 AM Share Posted 08/11/02 04:56 AM After reading this thread early in the week l called our dealer to try and get to the bottom of this.He called today after having spoken to Fords Tech help, and was told that our car (a manual) will come with both LSD and TC. Apparently the specs brochure is incorrect where it states that you cant have TC with a manual. We found out last week that metallic paint colours arent a NCO either as stated on the spec sheet!l will have to go back and read through some of the road tests l have also, because l am failry sure in one of those the car tested was a manual and l can remember the jurno going on about how well calibrated the TC was. l will be disappointed if we dont get TC as l think its an excellent safety feature and in this day and age would be ridiculous for it not to be fitted to a car making well over 300hp.l guess we will (hopefully) have the car in around 10 days time, so until then who knows what to believe?

One of the few downers if we can't have both really.As far as I know, metallic paint is a $255 option. This may have happened after the last minute pricing alteration that was rumoured to have occured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
