zexxr8 you should be getting it any time now. Youre going to love it mate. Really is a stunning car. Theyve made some great improvements. Touch screen is a real treat. An all round great package.

Thanks mate, which state are you in and which dealer?

Hey guys, just to let you all know, I picked up my XR6T Shillouette the other day. Took 5 weeks in the end so happy about that. Really is an absolute fantastic car. So far so good. No noises, no rattles. Loads of power but have resisted temptation to give it a good squirt. Will try to post some pics. Thanks again for all the feedback and info.

Mine is an auto, yeah the reason why I went with black is because it looks so awesome. Might need a little bit more maintenance but hey I think it's worth it. Im hoping a regular wax or polish will alleviate most of the trouble. Pkooistra yours looks fantastic mate, did you get any options on yours? So imagine me going from a 2.0 litre Telsta to a turbo. sh*t I cant wait. sh*t CWHYTE, what's the story there mate? You mean to tell me you've been waiting 3 months already? I ordered mine a week ago and they told me mid June. What state to you live in?

Thanks for the tips guys but I must say that my instinct tells me that replacing oil as regular as possible will pay off in the long run. Oil is reasonably cheap compared to serious mechanical issues in the future. So anyone come up with a quarter mile time these babies run?

Thanks guys, responses and advice is much appreciated. Makes me glad to be part of the XR6 Turbo community. Had a 2005 4X4 Ford Courier diesel for the last couple years. Before that a BF MK 2 Falcon Ute on dedicated gas. Now am driving in a sh*tty little runaround 88 model Telsta and absolutely can't wait to pick up the beast I've ordered next month. I wont know myself for at least the first month. I know ill love it and I just cant wait! So out of curiosity what are the FG MK 2 turbos running on the quarter mile and what is the time for 0 - 100 kms? Also you guys with the darker color cars, is there any advice you can give me on protecting the paint, for example are there any polishes or waxes on the market which help keep away the dirt and grime and make it easier to wash? Thanks again to everyone !!!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone. I have recently ordered an XR6 Turbo ute with Luxury pack option in Silhouette and would appreciate some info. For starters to you guys that have this particular model ute, are you happy with it and is there anything in particular I have to look out for especially on delivery day? Is the standard tow bar pack adequate or is the Hayman Reece a better option? Is there any time needed to run in the engine? These questions for now, thanks and your time is much appreciated.
