What cars are currently on your "to test drive" list, might be for interest, purchase consideration, comparo to your current ride, or a retro car you wish you owned
Mine are as follows 1. Like to test drive an old aussie injected stroker 5.7 from the 90s in a old hsv gts/senator. Never driven one. i used to own a modded aussie 5.0 efi years ago, always wanted to driver the stroker version 2. F6 FG, still have not driven one, interested to see how good they are stock, i had a modded xr6t a few years back, comparative test, ive driven fg xr6t, like to know how much better f6 is 3. GT 335, boss 5.0. I still have not driven one, interested how well they go stock, also comparative against fg f6 and even my modded boss 5.4 4. T series 5.6, interested to see what the fuss is about, ive bagged em a bit but interested to feel this supposed mountain of low down torque and how it stacks up against boss 5.4, i like the windsor 5.0 efi so im sure it would be nice to drive 5. Merc c63, i saw some young chick rollin round in one. They are nice cars, 6.3 litres of merc muscle must be the goods |

So you have been bagging 5.6 litre T series without actually ever driving one? For me: 5.0 Supercharged GT R35 GTR

My top 10 list for now and not in any particular order....
1. FG F6 typhoon (modded one would be even better) 2. Supercharged GT 335 (see what the fuss is about) 3. VE GTS (have shame but interested to see how it goes) 4. Genuine Phase III XY GTHO (just to say I have driven one) 5. Shelby AC Cobra (dreaming lol) 6. R35 GTR Skyline (see how it handles on a windy road) 7. Lamborghini Gallardo Super Veloce (especially on the autobahn in Germany) 8. Monster truck (for the fun factor) 9. Peter Grmusa's ATRISK xr falcon (self explanatory) 10. FG XR6 luxury pack (brother wants to get one before the end of the year)

Here I will make it much eaiser for you my poor missguided friend..
This is your own word's, I have driven a 5.6 litre windsor but it was in the pursuit ute. Ive owned 3 injected windsors myself, stock and modded. Ive also owned a ls1, (from stock to 282rwkw). I currently own a modded Boss, im not just stiring the pot, im just less one eyed. |
