Speaking of the typhoon the test drive I had in that thing is a whole new story in it's self two word's Fcuking awesome!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}>All new BOSS V8s are a bit slow. They don't really get up and go until they have at least 20,000km on them.I have driven a lot of different new BAs; GT, GT-P, Pursuit, XR8 & XR6T and all of the V8s were pathetic compared to mine with 70,000km on the clock.On the other hand I have also driven a couple that have had a few Ks on them. These went well, as good as if not better than mine.Interestingly the V8s improve a lot with time whereas the 6Ts seem to be close to their optimum from day 1.See if you can get a test drive in a s/h GT, you may be surprised.
