What cause we dont like a car, your the one who needs to pull your head out of your ass. Just cause we dont like a certain car doesnt mean that we dont like other cars. My list of favourite cars is massive....... I just dont like falcon or commodores, build a bridge and get ova it.
grow up, and take your own advice and dont get your panties in a knot. :moon:

heres some facts for you, I've out run a xr8 ute down the barb straight in a stock FTO (plus an LSD) just by getting a better exit on the last corner and getting hte power down sooner, and i only just passed him. and we also both got the same fastest time on that night

its an insult to say if you cant do it no matter how hard YOU push your foot to the floor in your FTO that it cant be done...

The fact is, you are here because you own an fto...so what is the point of saying how crap it may be ( i dont agree) ...live with what you got...beggers cant be choosers. (this isnt directed at any individual) ;)

the point was the new xr6t is good out of the box - which was the topic of this thread. It had nothing to do with the FTO being crap.

no need to get defensive becuase a common ford is faster after all its about 12 years newer has twice the displacement and a turbo and cost 60k...it should be better.

yeah

i was talking about an old ford just then...i got defensive cos you said they were way better than an FTO and they'll never compete and I know for a fact that they do

i reckon all fords & holdens weigh too much for their own good but thats.... being corner-ist.
