Completely agree.

>310kW 'sprint' model only comes in auto
Nothing wrong with the ZF mate. It's a fantastic Auto box. It's quicker than the manual on the quarter.

That said I want a XR6 Turbo Sprint too, or an F6E to upgrade from my FG XR6T
>>
>>14946776
I don't doubt the auto box is good, I just love driving manual. I might just settle for a standard XR6T.
Also, do you know how the overboost works? I read somewhere that it'll overboost to 370kW or something insane like that.

Fair enough.
>Also, do you know how the overboost works?
Wizardry. That's all I know.
I think the stock boost is something like 8PSI and over boost bumps it up to 10 (on the FG, unsure on the Sprint). Lasts for 10 seconds.
In regards to activating it, the pedal stops 80% of the way down under light pressure. A little bit more force and it goes to the floor. Thats when it kicks in.

Noice.
So what's going to happen to Falcons when they stop production this year? Are they going to build them somewhere else or is that it?
>>

Buy a rhd one

It's the end of the road for the Falcon (and Territory)
They won't be manufacturing them any more.

>>14946927
Fuck that's sad, hopefully it won't make the prices skyrocket.
Who else am I going to turn to for an I6 engine?
