Heya Guys!

I'm buying a 1993 Ford Falcon XR8 5L Auto, and I'm just wondering what the spec's are. The dealer said it puts out 185kW standard... But somehow I don't believe that.

I could be wrong :) - but I am just wondering if any of you guy's know the specs on it? or a page with the specs of them...

Also how do they compare to the VR SS?

Thanks heaps guys!!

The EB XR8 only has 165kw, only the EL XR8 series 2 has the 185kw

they want about $13000 for it I think. It's either that or a VS Equipe

Go for the XR8, put a good exhaust on it and you wont be dissapointed

Given that the XR8 is in reasonable nick, there is no comparision betwen an XR8 and a VS Commonhoare.

You shouldn't have to think twice.

You should be able to hagle the price down now that you know its only 165kw

Id say a VR SS would be quicker off the line, due to its lighter weight and shorter geared Auto.

Wheels mag did a comparison between VR S & SS and ED XR6 & XR8...
The XR6 won :s6: :s3

It's true. :) Due to various reasons.
