I know xr6 sprint is sold out, but does it really justfie the higher price? beside resale value, how about a normal xr6 turbo with a tune, bigger brake and wider tyres? I think the xr6 sprint is just an factory tuned version of the xr6 turbo, do they come with the bigger turbo of the f6? the fg xr6 turbo's smaller turbo would still spool faster.I herad the sprint gets some sort of new hardware in the zf 6 speed, each gear get there own mapping, can the after market tuner do the same? anyone can gets their tune and program?  if speed and performance is your main goal, I think a after market tuned xr6 turbo would be just as good as the sprint if no faster?

That depends on what somebody is willing to pay.

Aftermarket (decent brand name) components will almost always be better than stock

Yes, they do.

I doubt it'd get any new hardware... software maybe.

ZF tunes can be done by aftermarket tuners. Speak to one about the specifics you may want.

Yep, aftermarket parts and tuning will be better than a sprint. Sprint is only a name and a few upgraded stock parts and a few badges but it could possibly be "collectible" which can drive the price/demand up.

Well 6/4 brembos are worth a pretty penny

Sprint will be a collectible but the two are basically the same if you really start modding

soooo wubalubadub and have fun

Agree, especially the last line.

If I had the money I'd buy a Lambo and drive around the streets in second gear everywhere and scare pedestrians

Batman FTW! (edit: link bucks in operation by forum I see)

 

Aggressive military styling for my aggressive supercar, none of this curvy lines BS for my imaginary millions :)
