I really like the EB-ED XRs. I actually like all listed, but the EBs-EDs are bloody tough, and classy.

If I could vote for 2 it would be EL & AU11. These can be made to stand out from the crowd. Voted EL though.

But agree with Nugget ...... XR 67 was way the best!!!!

I don't I don't like the rounded lights. I like how the ba/bf have slight curves on the head lights. The Au xrs are okay but they look to spacey. the front bumper makes it so obvious it has a body kit on. It doesn't flow like the ba/bf does. In saying that I really thing the Au xr utes look tough

BA/BF first for me.

EL being a close second. At the time, they looked great.

look at the difference, the front of the au looks like it doesn't belong. the ba/bf front looks like it was made to on that car from scratch where as the au looks like a body kit was put on. doesn't flow. But I still the it looks mean. just the ba/bf was executed better.

The Ba/BF' xr's are a fine car but they look like any other Ba/bf falcon in the crowd.
The eb,ed,ef,el, and au's with round headlights stand out and look (and are) more like a bonafide performance model. Does a ba/bf xr8,xr6 turbo stand out from a ba/bf xr6?
Does a Ba/BF xr6 stand out from any other BA/BF falcon with a spoiler? NAH they all look the same on the road!

I agree nitroman the ef-au series really stood out from the crowd whilst the ba-bf is a great car, the older series looks more agressive i think an au2-3 looks awsome and goes great with that wonderful 220kw motor.

Gotta be the AUII/III for sure. If it doesn't have round headlights it's not an XR. :
