Hi guys

concerned because i think i paid too much .. hmmmmm

how much is this worth?

XR6 Turbo / april 2003 Cirtic acid / leather seats / passenger airbag / 18" wheels / tint / 19000k's / onroads

Probably pointless to ask now! Just enjoy the beast and don't beat yourself over your head because you think you paid too much.

RATT is correct - its done now, just enjoy it!

However, it depends on a lot of things: how many options, on road costs, whether or not you had a trade in, whether they knocked anything off the price, whether it was an order or off the floor, etc.

Put it this way, the retail for my NA XR6 as seen below was about $49K and I got it for $43K on road. I also got rear electric windows as standard on T. So if I had gotten T with those options, I would have picked it up for maybe $48Kish.... Oh and I also got paint protection, interior protection, alarm, wheel sensors - I didn't trade in, sold my previous car privately so got the best of both worlds - good price for old car and good deal on new one. They also tinted my sunroof and gave me some free XR mats.... That price also did not include insurance or my custom plates.

I think I got a good deal, but who knows....

Just go enjoy your T, lucky bugger!!!

Just a list of what you get for the extra $5000 when getting the Torbo over the NA XR6. Found these details proir to my recent purchase. So if you add about $5k onto the $43k youv'e done OK.

Manufactured to FPV spec�s on the production line
High flow and twin rear exhaust system
Garrett GT40 Ball bearing Turbo Charger, engine oil and water cooled
Stainless Steel Exhaust Manifold
Air to Air Intercooler
Limited Slip Differential
Traction Control
4 channel ABS
Rear Electric Windows
Lower compression ratio
Dished Pistons
Inconel high temp exhaust valves
Higher fuel pressure
Different Dual VCT calibration
Additional dash warning light operation for turbo engines
Rear TURBO badge

Tuned to be run on unleaded (91 RON), but preferred to run on premium unleaded (95 RON)

Maximum torque of 450nm available from 2000 rpm to 5250 rpm.

Runs at 2000 rpm at 100 klm/hr, which is ~300 rpm higher than the non turbo engines. This has the engine at max torque when required

Speed limiter set to 230 klm/hr (XR6T & XR8 only) instead of 200 klm/hr

No redline on tacho, rev limiter operates at 5900 rpm

Towing capacity 1600 kg. Limited due to the restricted cooling flow through engine caused by the intercooler in front of the air conditioner and radiator.

I got the best deal mate.
2004 XR6T, Blueprint, Premium sounds, Ford alarm, tinted windows, XR floor mats, XR scuff plates & on-road costs for $45,250.
RATT from Peter Warren Ford Smithfield gave me the great deal.
Looks like i'll get the car early May. 35-ish days 'til i get my XR6T.

You can get second hand Turbo's for $39,980 with less than 20,000kms on the clock. I was going to purchase a brand new Subaru 2.5i but it was going to be $38,000 on the road. I have now decided to purchase a 1 year ol XR6 Turbo in a couple of months instead for no more than $40K. Can't bloody wait, just got to pay big for insurance for under 25!

I know I have seen second hand 6t's going on the carsales site for as low as 36k with 40,000 on the clock. Im thinking of doing something like that and keep my eyes open for a bargain.

Would there be anything I would need to look out for going this way?
