Hello all, or should that be goodbye?

Today I traded my 2003 xr6 turbo in for my new car, a black Mazda CX7 Luxury ( yes it has a turbo )

I tried to sell my XR privately for over 3 months, had a few tyre kickers, all said what great condition it was, but no one wanted to pay the price I wanted.

I started with high hopes of $23,000 and over the 3 months dropped the price to various stages, and finally $18,000. Still the trade in price offered was $15,000 - $16,000 depending on dealership. ( it had done 110,000 kms as of today)

So im hanging up my fordxr6turbo hat, and wanted to say thanks to all the people here that have been helpful with their psts and suggestions over the years

everything from installing footwell lights to XBOXs and chair leg blow off valves.

Its been great, its been expensive and now... it over.

Happy Boosting people!

sad to see anyone go from the site,

seems like its happening more and more often lately . probably alot of people feeling the prices of petrol.

so whens the intercooler on the CX7 going in?
