Ahhhhh.. Another "traitor"... At this rate there'll be no-one left over at XR Turbo forums?... Tell me.. Can you guys be trusted though? I mean once the FPV Turbo is on the road, are you gunna jump ship again?......... OR have you trully seen the light once & for all?
Anyhow... Welcome Mercturbo!! Enjoy your beast! (& what do ya think compared to the turbo, so far?)
Good choice on your purchase of a GT, congratulations and hope to see you around.

Gday Charlie, I think Hypno,s gonna report on the Typhoon b4 most of us. Anyone would be silly to not at least audition it, I think for $55k odd, and with a bit of a discount, if you can get it, it may tempt even a few others off here. As far as GT vs XR6t, I've found the instant torque/grunt with afew revs on board, quite intoxicating, the sound, brutaly sexy over 3 grand, and the high speed handling, holding its line etc better than xr6t, also if your after a standout car looks wise this is obviously it, asked my wife the same question, she said "it just looks better, not as common" just a new accessory for her like a handbag I think. They just don't get it. Yeh I love it more than xr6t. I fear for xr6t drivetrain in the short/medium term especially modded ones, anyway Cheers Rob.
Welcome Mate... welcome to the forum. Nice choice of colour might I add!
Thanks Buddy, vixen definatly stands out, I'm finding maybe just a bees d!ck too much, cop bait, commies, xr's, and the rest, just wont leave me alone, licence loosing temptations everyday, was not like this with Merc silv xr6T anyway Cheers Rob.
