Welcome,

The f6 is allot of fun, I have had allot of SS utes all with work done. But they don't come close to the f6 I have now. I only have a tune and dump pipe done and it makes 311rwkw. The only thing you will miss is the exhaust note. However the turbo noise is really starting to grow on me, I think mainly because once you here the turbo you know you are in for some fun.

Are you looking manual or auto?

Yea, there is certainly some easy power gains to be had over the ss which is why I was so keen to make the move.

Im not overly fused on auto or manual, it has been hard so far to find a F6 in manual but..

What are people's thought's on the auto gearbox's? What power are they good for before needing a freshen up? I drive quite a few standard FG's daily and I much prefer there auto box over the holden's. No where near as harsh or "clunky"

I sold the ute for 24,500. Was probably a bit cheap, but it was pushing close to 170000km's so it was time to go.

The manual is the way to go in my opinion, as I like corners. But allot of people say the auto is good. The price you got for the ute sounds good. I sold mine 2 years ago for that price with less km so you did well.

Mate welcome! Not a bad SS you had there.

We hope now with all that behind you, you find a decent F6 to enjoy.
