I realise there is the povo pack AU XR6 and the more desirable AU VCT XR6, but what is the difference between the vct and vct sprint?

It was basically a run out model to get rid of 'spare parts' before the BA was released.
(Correct me if I'm wrong) It had the following standard: Momo, Premium Sound and the rebel bodykit standard and 18" TE50 Azzuros. They only came out in Blueprint, Venom (Red), Silhouette (Black) and Liquid Silver. Cheers, Anthony

Supposedly the ST stands for Sprint and many people list them as such.
On top of what velocity said they also have a leather interior standard plus the ST decals (good indicator to tell if it is genuine or not). 125 were made in total.

Hi all, The Blueprint Tickford Magazine, 2002, Special Windsor V8 Collector's Issue has a brief explanation of the AUIII XR6 ST:- First Ever XR6 Limited Edition, fully-equipped version of the XR6 VCT called the ST. Was announced at the Melbourne Motor Show. Has [COLOR=#F80000 ]IRS[/COLOR], Leather Trim, Momo leather covered steering wheel and gear knob and XR floor mats. Ford Racing body styling as introduced on the XR8 Rebel. ST badging on both rear doors and boot, 18 inch Azzurro alloy wheels and Dunlop SP9000 tyres from the TE50. Only 125 built. The ST name makes reference to the Sprint heritage while preserving Sprint V8 exclusivity. Colours include Blueprint, Liquid Silver, Silhouette and Venom. Also has the same ride height as the AUIII XR8. My AUIII XR6 ST is a beautifully balanced car ( heavy [COLOR=#F80000 ]IRS[/COLOR] with the light VCT engine ), a delight to steer on windy roads, and made even more enjoyable to drive with the 5 speed manual.

I dont think the VCT was much chop of the HP really...but the ST is a nice package.
