BF GT Manual, I would like the features of the GT-P but it has always seemed funny to me that it should be called that, it seems that it isnt a "real" gt if it has a badge that says GT-P.
Maybe they should have called the premium model a 500 or something or better still just had one GT model and made all the extras available as option packs. A GT with RPO 122 (or whatever) would have a better marketing image to me. After all there is a fair bit of difference in the XB range between one with no options and one with air, power steering, sunroof, cloth inserts, 8 track, globe wheels etc. Regards, Tote

I don't really know yet, until I've got the opportunity to test drive all of them - back to back preferably.

I chose Typhoon in manual. Reason : I think it would be a lot of fun on windy roads, a GTP Manual would be the same, i chose Typhoon as it's so easy to extract big power from.

I'm hoping to order a Toxic GT 6 speed auto next year with black stripes, although the F6 is a tempting package. My only query is wether the F6 6 speed auto could handle extra boost from the edit without getting lunched.

I already own the car I dream about. None of those cars listed grab my gonads tight enough to spend $60000+.

R8 Manual. Sorry the LS2 is untouchable, imagine it with the ZF 6 speed.
Second choice would be an SY with the F6 go fast and handling gear and ZF 6 speed. Third choice would be F6 in auto. But in truth, the LS2 with the ZF in a Giha SY 5 seater would be hard to go past. |

F6 auto. It may not beat the top of the ford food chain. But I do believe it is the best hunter. The auto only adds to the huge potential of turbo 6 and if FPV were serious they could up the anti on the boss a whole lot more. F6 auto is my dream car thats why I ordered one as soon as could.

Well seeing that I am not paying for it and the car is being given to me I selected the BF GT-P Auto although the manual would be fine , I am just getting lazy in my old age..lol.
If I was buying the car and had to pay for It I would be a BF XR6Tuuuuurbo Auto

F6 Auto.
1. Faster than GT (straight line & track) 2. Cheaper than GT and can option up very nicely 3. Prefer an auto with the amount / type of driving I do. Plus it's a sweet gearbox. 4. Prefer Turbo I6 to V8 5. Typhoon is the only FPV car that makes me want to spend the extra $$ to own one over a XR. 6. Plan on getting one in 2008 (Orion model :the_finge ) 7. Would never own a HSV |
