I voted the XR8 Sedan because it was closest to a GTP :)

Maybe the GT's are becoming too common. Need to get DJR to do an upgrade to mine.

Re: What Ba Have You Bought

Had a BA XR6 and traded up to a 04 FPV GT as said b4 you need to wind up the XR6 N/A to get the power, Not with the GT !!!!!!!! Mods, BMC pod filter, Big mouth cold air induction, Next full Herrod 2.5" stainless steel system with quad exhaust !!!!

Re: What Ba Have You Bought

Maybe we could do another similar Poll on the BAs but not so detailed.

Veeeery late reply.

I have one of those, don't own it tho.

It is the ultimate sleeper, very torquey and enough top end to keep a VY SS at bay as one owner experienced recently.....

Oh and did I mention that she sounds sensational especially with a 3 inch exhaust?

Re: What Ba Have You Bought

Hey RATT I'm still here :)

Surely a 3" exhaust sorta destroys the stealth of the XT! Unless, you or the other driver has a doof doof system cranking to drown out the exhaust note...

Maybe after uni when I have a full-time job (Coles $$$ doesn't *quite* cut it) I'll be behind the wheel of a BA, BB, etc 5.4 manual.

Re: What Ba Have You Bought

Dec 2002 when my BAXTV8 pulled into my drive way and she still with me.
Best upgrade was a BMC air filter, gave her a extra lung after 4000rpm and a great intake sound.
