Sorry about that.
I can comfortably say that the T3 is the best Falcon I have ever driven. Sure, it didn't go as hard as my XR8, but the neutrality of each core element of the car was so lovely. In that I mean a nice balance of power, brakes, steering precision, ride quality and overall body control, no one element out pacing the other. The tiny little Windsor meant the front end felt alive and responsive.
Compare that to the XR8, that thing is all engine, the decent body control at the expense of ride quality, the brakes on the edge of ability, and the steering heft reveals the weight teetering over the front axle.
I love the XR8 for all that, but I also know that the T3 was the chassis highlight in the Falcon linage.
One more to completely ruin your evening................
