It has Auto, Sport wheel, Leather, Mats and he'll but in window tint. (20% I hope)The only thing I really would like is factory Sat Nav as I already have it my car and I love it but at $3800 not to sure.Any way thanks heaps. I'll keep you posted.Cheers Aaron Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/30479-question-for-typhoon-owners/page/2/#findComment-468730 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 21y 5m 4d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 25/11/06 03:32 PM Share Posted 25/11/06 03:32 PM Mate, save your money on satnav and buy either aftermarket that works off the ICC for about $2k.I had it in my T and I think my touchscreen $900 GPS works heaps better and has redlight cameras installed.Also optioning factory satnav will require a custom build car, or you "might" find a dealer stupid enough to have one on the floor.I am glad Brenton is looking after you, he is a great bloke.Also Auto is the only way to go in the F6, you will hate yourself if you got a manual.

O2STOCK Donating Members 607 Member For: 19y 10m 4d Location: Brisbane Posted 25/11/06 10:36 PM Share Posted 25/11/06 10:36 PM The auto F6 for me is the best option Like said before just drive one any you will see the difference. I took the manual for a extended test drive. It was fun but as soon as we hit traffic it was a pain.The auto on the other hand was great all round and heaps more performance, smooth and consistant.Tha manual seemed faster because I granny shift with heaps of delay in the gear changes fast - pause - fast etc.In the end it is your choice but what ever you do BUY THE LEATHER OPTION you can add the wheel and what ever else latter if you wish.Price I bought a BF phoon - leather - auto - fpv wheel - mats - tint - 18s 900Ks $52K drive away $60K too expensive for a car with 2000Ksjust my 2c Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/30479-question-for-typhoon-owners/page/2/#findComment-468790 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SavageF6 Donating Members 1,622 Member For: 21y 2m 29d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 26/11/06 12:19 AM Share Posted 26/11/06 12:19 AM (edited) Aw come on fellas, the BF F6 manual aint that bad. You do loose boost between changes (advantage auto), but I can still change quick enough to get the tail wagging going into 2nd on the stock tune, even with the Michelin PS2s (love the BF clutch).Using Tranzmax Z instead of the standard Dexron III is mandatory as well, making it much easier and fun to change gears as opposed to the tractor shift that it is with the factory oil.You do have to work much harder for the same result with a manual when drag racing though.
