Upgrading To A Ba

Is there much difference between the 02 and 03

More teething problems?

If I was in your position - I would be looking for a BA Mk2 manual with moderate ks. Then you can have the 6 speed manual, mk2 have better valve springs, and basically - the newer the car, the more minor updates it would have.

I wouldnt go for the first year personally to save $2,000

That car looks fine, has leather seats, premium sound. though - I thought you wanted a manual?

yeah well I have always loved manauls and my current xr6 is a 5 speed manual but I have heard that the 03/04 BA xr6 manuals are a bit clunky and not so good so I was willing to covert to an auto with s/shift as I thought I would kind of have the best of both worlds

If you plan on modding - than an auto or a 6 speed manual seem to be better bets. If standard is your aim - have a drive of a 5 speed before you decide.

I just want to keep it stock.

You got me thinking now, I had decided on a auto but I would love a manual but I am having enough trouble trying to find the right T now throw a manual in the mix will make it even harder to find yeah? and like I said I have heard the T5 are not so good with the whinning clunking etc and thought I could still have the same fun with the s/shift in the auto.

But I will drive a few more and maybe it will all come clear.

I have never owned a black car before and was just wondering if anyone driving a black 240T could let me know how hot does it get in these things in the summer compared to lighter coloured cars?

I just been looking at a Black 2004 XR6T
