The falcon is good but when you modify them they just arent as enjoyable overall. I already hate driving mine everyday.

Nah hairdressing isn't really my thing...

 

 

Side note I have been offered 15k for my car lol

Who the hell would pay 15K for a b series that isn't an F6? I suggest you take the money and run because that's an absolutely amazing offer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers guys. My FG isn't modded so pretty boring cruiser and straight line drag racing isn't something I particularly enjoy. It pisses me off driving on any road with a few consecutive bends.

 

What is a manual FG Turbo worth these days, just hit 54,000km, mars red. I'd say it's in great condition, one owner and full service history at the dealership I bought it from.

Is it opposite day today?

 

 

 

Buy big grippy tyres if you want traction to go with the power, these cars are beasts when tuned which IMO (and 99% of us here I'd wager) makes them more fun!  You can also enjoy the challenge of getting the power down just on the threshold of spinning the tyres.

 

 

 

 

The caveat to that is it could change when you have crazy power like 500rwkw+ though.  I imagine would get frustrating at times, hell as much has been said to me by one of the old WA members who sold his massive power F6 and bought a R33 GTR instead.  He enjoyed my car more despite having like half the power because I have traction most of the time.  It's been said before that 400rwkw is usually the most you can enjoy on the street and even then you need high end tyres that don't last very long because they are so soft and sticky.

Pull the trigger on a focus or fiesta depending on your space requirements, you wont regret it as a daily. Even with the close ratio manual vs the zf id say I prefer the ST daily and sadly usually take it to the shops etc by choice. Just a way nicer car to drive... 2013-14 Focus should be low 20's by now and fiesta even cheaper... g6 is a bit of a family beater these days... In fact I literally just got back feom getting some thumb tacks to pin the fn hood lining up till I get it replaced.........

If I am going to change I will be buying new so the Focus is out of range/a pointless move financially. If I had bought the Focus ST I was sitting next to when I did the paperwork for the Falcon, we probably wouldn't be having this conversation and I would "Focus" on paying it off as quickly as possible. This is why the Fiesta is the one for me. No kids, no kids planned, no real need for space.

I appreciate the pointers mate and for the mods letting this go lol.
