R34 GTST vs XR6T

[Sonic]

It was another ATCC driver with the initials CMcC. He's driven quiet a few Porsches and took the GTP championship and Porsche Supercup back in 1994/95 in a Porka...

He contributes to magazine, whose editor drove an XR6 in Targa Tassie.

Woo hoo! Tied that one together as well! LOL

Now we shall let it rest...

i am a huge fan of the xr6t, i love the shape, the beastie look, the power and the leather seats ect its great

i also love the r34's but i'd have to go for the xr6 over the r34, its better for every day driving, newer, easyer on insurance, cheaper to fix ect

but thats just me

Just because 1 amg beat 1 porsche around 1 track on 1 day of the year dont mean you can say an amg will beat a 996 turbo around a track.

I wouldnt mind the F1 AMG pace car tho.

I been driving around a BA XT Falcon for the last few months (hire car for work) and its quite a nice ride but feels very big/heavy and unstable at high speeds. I know the XR6 has a total different suspension setup but its based on the XT chassis and it aint all that good.

The whole IRS/wheel package/steering set-up is different. It's a totally different feel. I've had a steer in an XT on a skid pan with the base handling, tyres, steering, no lsd and traction control switched off. Yee haar. The XT is sooo different to the XR which is a different feel to the R34 again.

As for Porka vs Merc. It'd be down to the drivers on the other 364 days of the year. But the Merc's quicker off the mark (750Nm does that!). The Ford was absent at this battle, although we DID pass an ED XR6 on the way to the track...

same driver, same track, same day, experienced in driving both cars u might find he does a faster lap in the 996 turbo.

gee guys, I think the HUGE point we are all overlooking here is the fact the a MAJOR manufacturing company is now producing a turbo car for the masses. this has to eventually lead to lower insurance and a more welcoming joe public.

As for the BA, I give ford full credit for having the bollocks to do it - it's not a bad car, got to give credit where it's due.

What are you on Prozac or something !

Look both are good cars. the R34 will be in better condition after 10,000Km on the clock than a similar treated Falcon.

If you want a 4 door go the XR6T it's all that.

Coupe wise the R34.
