Shame he got the advert wrong, but yeah, clearly not a rebel or a 220kw from those pics.

Dude, your forgetting BLUEprint (arguably) the most popular colour for AU3 performance models :P

OP I reckon you should've held out for a tidy Rebel but that Enforcer XR8 looks like a good buy nonetheless.

You can't please everyone. Bottom line is your happy George. All the best with your new ride.

No I'm not.

Rebels are Series 2 only. Blueprint came out on Series 3 and wasn't a Rebel. Had the Rebel (or Ford Racing) bodykit, but that's it.

dont you guys go off arguing please mods delete if this happens.

**Peuty** · 29-09-2012, 11:13 PM

No arguing here, it's all pleasant conversation as far as I can tell.

b2tf · 29-09-2012, 11:21 PM

Rebels were black, red or monsoon blue.

au11futura · 29-09-2012, 11:45 PM

^^^^^ sure about the monsoon?

au11futura · 29-09-2012, 11:52 PM

i thought rebels were black & venom but could not remember in blue thats why i had some crossed wires when this ad said this car was a rebel.

XR27 · 30-09-2012, 12:03 AM

Rebels came in monsoon blue,
I had a look at the sales Brochure.

Day-mow · 30-09-2012, 07:42 AM

You should have gotten a WRX George. If you thought the AU's where made better then the BA's you'll be mind blown when you hop in a WRX.

That being said. Whennns you gonna get a big fat blower? =D

AU Mont · 30-09-2012, 08:33 AM

wrx is a girls car

how is one comparable to anything a large sedan car is made for?

Positive. I have driven one and see one around here on a regular basis.

galaxy xr8 · 30-09-2012, 11:52 AM

The Rebel's were available in 3 colour option's,
Venom Red
Moonsoon Blue
Shilloute Black
Only 125 were made.

FPV8U · 30-09-2012, 12:08 PM

Nice Enforcer edition you got yourself there, lots of potential for future mods and already comes with the upgraded brakes.

au11futura · 30-09-2012, 12:30 PM

^^^^ yep the size of the fronts are as big as a small cars wheels.

Damo ive like scoobies but not enough to buy one its time for fours and sixes to take a back seat for a few years now as they have taken most of my life time for some V8 rumble.

both cars will attend the womens a childrens charity event this year aswell, and all ford day next year, we dont want to mod toooooooo much though...

Bit of a shame you're a badge snob, Hyundai are now making some good looking cars. Having said that, keep away from the older poorly suspended i45s though.
I said I'd never own a Hyundai and we now have a ix35 in the driveway, awesome diesel SUV.

Also, to the op, I love your XR8 Enforcer.

Yeah fair George. I heaps do want a V8 in a perfect world I'd have both but for now a WRX suite desires more.

Hopefully I'll be about for hospital cruise. I do like The envy

well over ten years together id say nearly married and yeh why not she drives it just as hard as i did the way the turbs is meant to be driven and she loves it.....better than leaving the stable to a stranger.....

I think gaso was commenting on the fact that generally in a long term committed relationship the 'yours' and 'mine' goes out the window pretty quick and things just become 'ours' and it doesn't really matter because hell, if you're sharing every other aspect of your life and self with someone then surely finances and vehicle ownership is far more down to who happens to have the set of keys rather than who financially 'owns' the car.

everything else is that way but the cars. for some reason both of us have a huge attachment to our cars dont ask why and how but it just is, we still drive each others though lol i think its the absolute last bit we have to being free or non attached so to speak......

i tell her if we split she can have everything but the car lol
she sais the same thing lol

AU Mont · 04-10-2012, 06:33 PM

yep basically you sold the car to yourselves lol

positive side is, i bet it makes for easy bargaining !!

Thats pretty much it. All money into one account. If your gonna share your life, money and material things are part of it. We have a single account. We discuss purchases before hand and if its not a yes from both, then its no to the purchase.
