My wife's drive car is an XR6 limited edition and mine is a GT Rspec. For an NA car she gives it heaps, not bad for an old girl that now has her seniors card.

My girl wants an MX-5. But she loves Falcon's, especially Xr6 Turbo's. Oh, and she is partial to an Aston Martin, because her dad works for them and brings a different one home every weekend

While the basic Ford Six was code named Barra, the Turbo version clearly deserved its very own moniker – again enter Gordon Barfield.
We asked him if the engine had actually been called “Seagull” and how that came about.
“Actually it was just call “Gull”, because I named it that. Because we knew it was going to poo on everything”.

My wife drives a modified WRX, loves it and doesn't want to sell it. She's also raced it in some street sprints. She never really liked driving my old WRX (due to stiffer suspension) but she loved how quick it was and enjoyed racing it. Hers is not as quick as the old one but more reliable

Wife used own and thrash a 900kg and 240+rwkw RX3 Coupe. Pulled a few trophies, but I think one of the highlights was taking away most of the womens trophies first time out at Springnats and returning a couple years later winning the womens go to whoa, plus other stuff.
