andyturbo Member 500 Member For: 21y 1m 22d Gender: Male Posted 04/04/04 06:36 AM Share Posted 04/04/04 06:36 AM Guys I need help! I know this has been asked lots before but I really cant decide on an XR8 or an XR6t . I took a turbo for a test drive and it hadnled great around corners but still nothing can beat the sound of a boss 260 ( well mabie a boss 290 ). I dont know what to get. Im looking at blueprint, auto, leather. I may consider APS upgrades later on as well. So with all this could somone pelase help me decide thanks!

My next choice will probably be an 8 again but who knows...... Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/9978-8-or-6t/#findComment-108088 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 04/04/04 07:33 AM Share Posted 04/04/04 07:33 AM I went with the Turbo cause its probably the best value big size performance car on the market. If I had better finances I probably would have gone for a GT but I would have left it pretty stock.Bottom line is get the one you like vbest and that best suits your circumstances.Geea.

What do you think we are going to say? :lol: Seriously though, it is a tough decision and in fact I would have an XR8 only when I ordered my T the 8 hadn't been released. But now I'm stuck with a slightly quicker car that didn't cost as much.
