Thats hot, love the ST/XR5.
I cannot wait for them to hit the streets here in Jan 2006. This is probably one of the better cars in the world at the moment for its price. |

Ha ha somebody has been surfing ffoc.co.uk!! Nice work. I'll be getting one in Electric Orange or Black. Already bought a set of Orange plates to match it with a nice little name on them.

LOL Yeah is a good source for ST info ;)
When I come to be in a position to buy colour is going to be a hard decision for me... Either Black or Blue so far... But i don't mind the Orange or Sea Grey as well... Then just need anti-lag and BOV like chris got with his :P |

awesome!
have any of you potential buyers thought about killing the XR5 Turbo badges and getting ST ones? I can understand why marketing did it, but its such a ghey name! And not only that they are in stupid positions on the side:? Or maybe debadgeing it all together

 . Orange is still my favourite, but I'm worried that it will be a fad colour. I remember thinking how nice that 'burnt orange' was that the SS commodores came out in a while back. About two years later, I remember thinking the colour was nothing special at all. I'll have to see it the flesh I guess, before I decide. I think one of the main reasons that the front end on the orange looks so good, is because the paint contrasts very well against the Grilles and spotlight housing. The problem with the grey and the black is that the grilles and spotties don't contrast much at all against the paint. I'll be keeping the badges. I don't mind them at all, and at least people might have some idea what I'm talking about when I tell them what sort of car I drive. Honestly, when I tell people I have an ST170, I get nothing but blank, puzzled looks and the inevitable response "what's that?"
