it's just the little things that make them better. Full premium sound with a parcel shelf sub woofer. I upgraded all of mine to aftermarket but if you're not into that kind of thing the original stuff will do. Better door trims with padded arm rests. Fancier trimmed leather seats. And all the A/B/C pillar trims and the roof lining trims are covered in felt. Not just s**t looking plastic. fancy map lights

I'm fairly certain thats how it came.

Fairlanes were pretty average spec through NF & early NL.

Concordes with the I6 seemed to get the 3.45 LSD, the 2 V8 Concordes i've had dealings with both have single's in them.

this might be a stupid question but can i drive the v8 on P's in VIC
Reason why i ask this is because the V8 only makes 3kW more and only 27nm @ 300rpm more than the 6. If i can then i'll probs find one on LPG
