They had a XR8 and XR6 in the window late on the afternoon of Sat 29th. I had been called by the new car manager to have a look but kids sports sabotaged that one...this week hopefully.
Want to get down to see the XR8 more closely as I have their 1st Manual (March production) locked in and it would be nice getting a hint of what what I am in for. I'm after an old-school musclecar experience when the welly goes in with short daily commutes but frequent weekend treks being the likely use. Reading between the lines after all the media BS about "features", "parts bin special" etc is exactly what I am likely to get which suits me fine. Bit frustrated if the early tight production is ramped up as I was a (hopefully) lucky early uptake and the thought of some rarity suited me (& suits me) fine...but then she isn't a FPV and being "just a Ford" meant I could deal with that dealership and not the others who had exclusive access to Miami until now. JHF's WA competitors are their best advertisement, 'though have to admit the experience itself so far with them has been pretty good and I didn't get gouged when inking a car in early October. They knew back in early October that they had a "halo car" with XR8 even though I had more info from here than Ford had given them at that time. |
