Hi guys,
need some expertise. Spent most of today looking at some xr6turbos deciding what to buy. At the end of it all, i am lost. Below are the links to both xr6s for sale that im looking at. One is a 02 model with 80xxxx on it and another which is 06 with 140xxx on the clock. being a noob to turbo's i would take the older with less km's but i dunno if i should. The newer one comes with the newer engine build and seq 6 speed auto. so what do i do? go with the older with less km's or newer with more km's... {DESCRIPTION} or {DESCRIPTION} thanks

The BF will be better all round. So as long as it's been properly maintained (check for logbooks, receipts etc.) I'd pick it.
Some of the major points... - better bottom end (starting in BF, the XR6T's got the same engine as the F6, only difference, is the cooler and factory tune) - BF better build quality - ZF6 is a much better box An '02 BA is really early, so in the following 6 years of life of the B series many improvements and fixes were made. The '06 (depending in month) will be a BF or BF MkII there wasn't many changes in the XR between MkI and MkII, there was a mild face lift (new body kit) for the so called (but not officially) MkIII XRs.

You'll get pulled over just as often. Quote: However, i have noticed with the standard piping and bov that the car is making a slite flutter noise now..???? is my bov f**k? That's fairly normal. Some do, some don't.
