I know you have other priorities right now

Ford like to knock back alot of drivetrain warranty claim's anyway nowaday's, so it doesn't make a difference really.
Once a few example's are hitting the $15k mark, that's the first car junior's jumping off their P's will consider.

Was driving along yeserday and one (Which i thought was a standard XR6) tried to do the sneaky and cut infront of me where the road went from 2 lanes to 1... He didnt have enough room and had to slot in behind me, but as soon as we hit the highway all i heard was something spooling up beside me and he nailed off pretty hard!

yep, and they need a stink load more power to get them moving into reeeeeal quick times... such as this one apparantely reported has 662rwkw? put that into a cortina and it's another world...
BUT as nizpro have showed, they can definitely make the power

Xr6ts are way better cars than vls , the only reason i have a vl is because you can go fast for little money, dont you realise that most people with stockish vls wish they could afford a new car?
Do you realise that a guy with an xr6t could buy 5 vl turbos if he wanted to, but he doesnt.
In 20 years time i think the xr6t will have a similar amount of fame as the vlt does now.
If 2 cars pull up at the lights, one being a 600kw vl turbo will immaculate paint and body work, and the other being a stock xr6t, guess what, 99% would pick the xr6t as the best car. Of course the vl would be more fun to drive, but thats only one aspect of a cars overall worth.
