Thanks for the input guys,

^^^ Yeah mate, that's the warranty it has...Doesn't bother me though, coz when I tune it, it will void that anyways

^^ I have asked for extras and he has thrown them in... Rego, liscencing, pit pass, detail, cut and polish, touch up paint, respray of front bumper...

I'd like some mats though, now that I think about it...maybe bigger wheels if they won't budge..?

Thanks mate, I'll let you know how it goes.

^Mate, I'm in WA and I can't find any...pickles has one but I'm not really interested in it. Thanks anyway

Cheers everyone,

Dan

So howd ya go

I just picked up my 2003 BA XR6T for $14,200 from NSW only catch is that its got 160k on the clock, however its been a company car and is in top shape so I wasnt too concerned about it. Honestly 18k for that in WA sounds alright, however I think you could do better if you shopped around a little more, maybe consider buying interstate. But then again you dont want to spend you whole life looking for it, just remember its not gonna go any slower than a BF.

Didn't work out robbo...

Had problems and it just became too difficult in the end. Still looking I'm afraid...

Hey everyone,

Keeping you all updated on my mishap, that is trying to find the right T.

Test drove a 2006 BFII XR6T with ~64xxxkm, ZF, Reverse sensors and the other stock stuff.

I'd heard all the pros and cons about them, so I thought - what better way to see for myself than to drive one?

I've driven probably 6 or 7 stock T's and this would be the best, if not a close second, T I have ever driven. (This is the first BF though.)

I have to say that the ZF is a dream compared to the 4 speed. Handled incredibly well - few very minor marks (Nothing worse than a private car) The power this thing has left the BA's I drove for dead. Had a minor clunk when reversing - maybe the diff? Nothing else wrong - not a foot out of place...

But overall - presented very well, interior was in really good nick as well as the exterior. Car has lots and lots of power (Well compared to what I'm used to...) And NCW.

I honestly don't know how you guys drive your T's in the wet. Had a short drive and was nearly back at the yard, so I thought since it was a straight, I'll put my foot down and see how it goes (I have noticed that many of the Ba's I drove had no kick when you accelerate - High Km's I guess...) Now keep in mind I'm going dead straight here. (Rained very lightly beforehand) The rear end comes out and I have to dodge a curb and end up in the other lane. I honestly didn't expect that...I've driven 260KW HSV's and such that don't even do that...

Are they prone to having the wheels spin like that? It seemed very hard to control compared to the V8's I'm used to...(I have owned a number of cars and have driven many high powered cars before - Just not turbo's.)

But overall very impressed with the car in general and the power it had. I'm seriously considering buying it, but I'm still not sure...

Hope this helps out anyone else with the chaser dilemna

Cheers guys,

Dan

EGO lets not let everyone know how good ex chasers are.... otherwise there will be none left for us!! How much do they want for it btw? Also with a turbo you have to get used to it, espically the in wet as power kicks in. Bit unpredicable when you first dirve it. Love how it kicks out and corrects itself upon gear change (6 spd auto rockS)

The joys of driving a T....

Just buy it dude, I found that people who own ex chasers have no problems with them, most people that don't own ex chasers don't like them but have never owned one.

I love my ex chaser, no regrets from me.
