G6et

[XXXRTURBO]

Hey guys I went to the dealers in dandenong (VIC) today and checked out the new G6ET and man that thing looks realy nice, it had leather interior and the inside as an over all look's much better then the FG6T. They also kind of remind me of an Aston Martin With the front body kit.

Just wanted to see whats everyones opinion on the G6ET???

I reckon they are horn,something about the luxury Euro look with ball tearing performance does it for me

Great looking car with some serious poke, just let down by a lack of an LSD.

Trying to resist the urge to test drive one for the time being

Can't option an auxillary trans cooler either like you can in the XRT.

Love them. I would have bought one if they came with an LSD.

Luxury and performance in one great package.

Someone should ask Mal Wood if he'll make an LSD for em. That'd be crazy and at a good price would make them a much better option to the people looking to tune them

I've had a drive of the press car/national car show duties G6ET when Titan's had the car for a couple of days. It had 5,xxx very harsh Kms on it and in the 3 days that it was at the dealer it was driven something like 40 times - not including the aprentices to get their lunch from Maccas...

The car felt fantastic - 10 psi factory boost coupled with the tall first gear in the ZF makes it a very, very quick combo off the line. Nothing that hasn't been said before - anytime, any revs, any gear - mash the loud pedal and the car just goes, effortlessly. There was no squeaks or rattles, steering was very tight.

The steering wheel is not as nice as the FPV's but still nice nonetheless, seating position is good (shorty @ 5'. The interior is excellent, its the cashmere (cream) color and it gives it a very spacious feel. Of course, it marks very easily so if you have kids - go the dark leather.

I think you can "make do" without the LSD untill you reach 260-280 rwKws and the majority of ppl buying this car will not go past that. This is no excuse for Ford's piss poor effort. As the flagship model, it should've come std with the LSD - of course, nothing our site sponsors can't fix.

The only thing I'd change on it is the factory rims for some nice dark argent or black 19's and lower it a little... Now, all I need is to convince the wife to trade in the Liberty GT

And its also a shame the manual is not an option...

Cheers,
