    GT-E needed its own kit and 15K off its price.

    Correct......would we still call it a GTE, or a G8E + ?

    In the market to get a new car in the past 6 months only, and wanted to buy new. GT-E was never an option, even the last of the GT's wasn't on the radar. XR8 it is then.
    FG X XR8 in Smoke. Smokin the tyres, that is!

    Since FG Ford nailed the ride and handling for the XR series. For our roads it was a good balance.
    Hated the G6E in the FG series. Apparently the G6ET is better but I've never had the opportunity.
