Yeah think I prefer this one TBH. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they do your place over as well or was it targeted? Seems to be all the rage these days - hope I never catch any fcker doing it to me or I'll be the one locked up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xr50 Donating Members 196 Member For: 13y 10m 7d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 04/09/14 09:24 PM Author Share Posted 04/09/14 09:24 PM Well a week has passed and still no sign of it being found so it looks like I'm gonna have to start looking for a new ride. Really pissed of,f I spent 6 months searching for that car and have spent the last year getting it just right and spent $$$$ on it but guess it might be time to move on.So I'm thinking about a change after 2 XR6T's.Does anyone know if the new XR8 is coming in a ute?Also thinking F6, GS or GT. I really like the possibilities with the 5.0 coyote motors but the GS is not as well equipped as the F6.The T had a few problem areas such as ZF milkshake, turbo oil lines etc do these still apply to the FPV range.Thanks Guys 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a V8 ute best to hunt around for a GS ute with the SC V8 Miami in it. Might be some still kicking around. Won't be able to pick up a brand new GT or F6 at this stage (they might be listed at dealers on carsales, but when you actually call to talk about it not so), unless you want to pay a ridiculous premium. That said, there's some 2yr old GT's up for grabs at the moment for low-mid $50k's. I'm biased, but I love my GT. The Miami is such an awesome motor to drive around with!
