I'd double check that 5s figure Hulkster as it looks a tad argumentative and not much else. PS------as posted above it's the replies that give these threads life. Swim away....swim away.....

Very entertaining to say the least. AFF has evolved beyond just a falcon and a few other cars. It's the characters within the community that keep many interested, myself included, with a great spectrum of knowledge, humour and other entertainment. And hats off to Hulk, if you do exist. |

Pepe the TRD uses the supercharged engine rather than the standard V6, it makes a good 40kW more power and still only manages 6.1s to 100. I'm not sure you can even buy them new any more, I've had trouble finding them on Toyota's website.

I like to theorise that hulky is doing a doctorate in the social sciences and all these threads form the basis of his impressive thesis that one day we may get to read when published in a science journal....
Wishful thinking?!? One thing is for sure many arc up over these threads which in itself provides half the entertainment, one cant help but check them out but...

Hulk must have pictures of a mod rooting a goat or something to keep getting away with this crap.

I tried logic and reason, hoping he'd get the hint when I suggested the VF Berlina, but alas, the lad seems to be bereft of either.

So please dont question my intent. Its a real question. Im leaning towards the aurion but trying to find reasons to go FG-X falcon Even in a ford community im struggling to get a legit response why to pick fg-x. Last edited by HULK_I6T; 04-08-2015 at 06:48 PM. |

Its a fair option but im looking at a base model as it will be a high km car doing around 25000-30000km per year.. the base vf engine is a fair bit slower than the aurion/falcon.

Ur probably just getting a new Aurion company car.. You already know the answer... Why buy an XT over an xr6 which is cheaper?

I actually get more entertainment watching everyone else crack the ***** in these threads hahaha.
Then again if you read T&C trolling isn't exactly a ban able offence, no matter how outrageous some of the things hulk has said are. If anything where else do you argue about pointless things then when at 'The Pub' haha

Hulk, the FG-X is no good, get the Aurion mate.
Sorry we all can't help hulk, buying a car is a very personal matter, some like this, some like that. Make your decision and get back to us,.....................or maybe not. Last edited by gossy; 04-08-2015 at 07:18 PM. |
