Momentum80 Member 8 Member For: 14y 3m 6d Posted 05/07/12 12:16 PM Posted 05/07/12 12:16 PM Inspected an xr6 and picked it up a day later.I think something suspicious may have happened as the rear end seems to kick out a little more than expected (not sure if is from aftermarket springs + roads or not).Just wondering if all xr6's had a red rocker/engine cover? Because it was sold as a BA xr6 Mk2. The rocker cover on this car is not painted so I'm wondering if I have been had, it definitely seems like there is something wrong with the car. We shall see.

Thanks for the info guys.
