Re: What Ba Have You Bought

I would love an XR6T or XR8 but realistically a BA Futura 4.0, Black, lowered 2", 18" chromes, tinted windows & a phat as stereo so it looks real gangsta style!

1. XR6 Sedan 18
2. XR8 Sedan 17
3. XR6T Sedan 15
4. XR8 Ute 13

Go the XR6's

Re: What Ba Have You Bought

At most of the dealers i go to, the worse selling sedan seems to be the Fairmont Sedan, I think its a little bit basic on the outside, and maybe thats its problem.

lol nah, just interested...

Wondering about the 220 5.4 @ +$5000 compared to 182 4.0 in performance, etc. Probably looking at the Ghias would give the best comparisons, as they're prolly the most particular BA model with a high 5.4 3V vs NA 4.0 ratio.

PS they'd be a nice sleeper
