iirc, they have a GT40 style turbo as standard.

The engines good for 1000bhp apparently, after you've spent £15k on it. I'd love one myself!

Not an auto though!

Theres an XR6 up the road from me, looks lovely.
I always wander how the owner got it here. Its been local for years now, steering wheels on the right side and everything.
Surely he wouldnt have imported it all the way from Ausi Island? That'd cost silly money wouldnt it?

I've often contemplating importing one of these. Surely it's Fords RHD equivalent to a Skyline (of sorts)? They come with a GT35 btw.Well, the late ones do.

Ah right, I just recall GT40 being bandied about by Performance Ford etc when they featured one.
