Pull your head in mate. If you can't have a conversation without childish name calling, go visit the infantilecomments.com forum.

Agree with the fact that you have the ability to answer all questions quicker and more accurately when behind the wheel .But my xr has changed me. I think as spoken T3 would be better again. As for any B series, I cannot see me getting anywhere near as much enjoyment as the AU XR. I think I have come to appreciate the confined cockpit type feel of it, but can be a bit daunting at times as you cant see the front end. So can be a bit blind (Hate when the wife drives)

My pick would be the xrT, and if you want the power kicking in earlier like the AU3 XR8, rework the turbo, make it come on to boost earlier. A good custom tune to the BA would make it a serious weapon. No 6 however will come close to the glorious sound of an 8 on the loud pedal.
