Default Wishful thinking - My next Ford

Ok, this is my "wish" for 2008 and I'd like to get some input and comments from people on here who may own such vehicles.

My lease will end in mid 2009, so I'm thinking that I may change my car at the end of 2008.

My criteria is ;

- car must be second hand with less than 60,000 kms
- would prefer new car warranty left on it
- budget,?? Less than $40k?
- Auto ZF 6 speed
- Leather

My thoughts are that once the Orion comes out in April/May, that the prices of BF's will drop dramatically. So I'm hoping that I can pick up a second hand BF at the end of 2008 for a good price.

So what do peoeple think of the following options;

- XR6 Turbo. But it would have to be optioned up to have leather
- XR8, but optioned up to have the leather
- Typhoon
- GT or GT-P

From this list it is either a turbo or an '8'. I'd welcome comments on driveability, fuel consumption, reliabiltiy, and finally cost.
