Just a quick question, cna you get Laser TX3 Turbos in FWD?

FoMoCo4eva · 08-18-2004, 07:57

yeap you certainly can. They are normaly more available than the 4x4 version and considerably cheaper too.

KE's had both FWD and 4x4....and KF's had just 4x4

FoMoCo4eva · 08-18-2004, 08:03

In my 21 odd years of living I have only ever seen 1....

Id imagine they would cost as much as a KE or KF now. Are they rare?

I thought they were a limited run of 500 or 1000.

I've seen about 3 or 4 around the ACT.

To most people, they look like a white laser... and they are very common.

Is this the one that has 'turbo' written on the rear garnish in blue and thats about it? Its very hard to pick and the one I saw was pretty clapped out too.

How do they go? Id imagine the engine would be on its last legs by now.

Yeah, thats the one. Had blue pin stripes and the telstar alloy wheels painted white.

They were okay, but I'm not a fan of FWD turbo's.
