    310kws with Brembos would do me I feel but I would sack you from the naming dept. Drifter sucks.

    What is your hypothetical model for volume of such offerings?
    Well I was thinking of Sundowner but that is a bit too 70s which led me to poaching the Valiant one...

    But I suppose Maverick has not had a run yet either....

    Maverick was the name Ford used on the Nissan Patrols in the 90's wasn't it?

    So looking at the poll numbers, a luxury version of the F6 would be the favourite.

    There was such a car called the F6E so I am assuming that car was right just priced too high?

    It didn't sell.

    We only got one vote for the normal range and that was by mistake. Brent actually meant drifter giving that two votes and the normal range 0.

    The return of the F6 by another name combined with 5 votes ahead of 3 votes for " my car isn't there"


    I am a v8 man, but of my two biggest regrets, one was not buying a F6.

    I personally don't feel the FGX XR range is agressive enough or different enough to make me go Landau.

    I think the XR signature lights look better but I do thing the g6e grill works better.

    There is no side skirts really to speak of, and the rear spolier is so small, what features would this Landau really have to make it destinctive enough?
    History is a statement, the future is a question.

    Mine was a mistake as well, I meant to vote for the normal range and build my own performance package

    im still interpreting the results as a need for two cars,
    firstly a 6t version of a GTE,
    and a budget version of an xr6 , ie an XT plus extras........
