hey guys i am looking at buying either a vy ss(or calais v8) or a ba xr6 turbo was just wondering peoples thoughts on each car and any problems anyone has had, i have driven a manual xr6 turbo and liked it very much but have not driven the vy yet but i do love the look of them. thoughts?

Do a bit of a search it has been covered.. though inevitably you get plenty of people who chime in an say my "XR6 chops nefing bruz, smashes gen frees ezy".. Or "my tune only VX has 370kw at da tyres and whips evry fin bro"

XR6T FTMFW!!! (Now ive started it ) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

but my cuzins VR 5L smashes em and its not worked as eva, like spooled 4.11z n cam n ****

well out of them 2 ill say the SS.. but if you said BF then ill go the ford.. the BA is easy to modify and it makes good power with small upgrades,, But the BA has a shit bottom end and transmission compared to the MKII BF..

^^yeah what Freeze said. Also the MK2 BF has stronger valve springs/valves

vy ss is nice but XR6 TURBO ANYDAY ! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

iv got a vyss. great car havent had any major probs, there pretty cheap these days too and go alrite for minimal money. never driven a xr6t so cant really compare, just drive both and see what suit you best

thanks 4 the comments will have a drive see how i go

End of the day if you wanna mod it ill go the SS rather then the BA.. or if you wanna get the BF get one that was built after the 6/6/06 as they come with stronger rods and valve springs and they have better transmissions both auto and manual

like freeze said anything after 6/6/06 has the stronger bottom end, valve springs, trans etc. ill rather stick with my xr6t than ss, when i got mine it was between fg xr6t an ve ss and the xr just blew me away compared to the ss.

go the BFII XR6T

ss. no substitute for cubes..

cheers guys i am starting to lean towards the ss i would love a black 1 with the red leather interior now that is tuff

Yep drive both and just get what makes you happiest. Easy.
