Went to Knox Ford today with my sister who wanted to test drive a mustang, anyway the salesman took us to the holding yard out back to show her a few different colours and there were two xr8 sprints, beautiful cars so I asked him if they are already sold and he said he knows of one that's still available, so there still out there, anyway my sister ended up ordering a white mustang due next Christmas

![]() Was in Power Ford on Friday and saw that they have a Smoke auto XR8, but like Sinclair Ford (Emperor auto) they want about $62k.......mine's probably worth $30k? It's leased until end of March next year, so may end up either keeping it or getting the sleeper RSpec you have enticingly described :-) Enjoy!

For anyone else interested there are two XR8's and one mustang at Mount gambier ford
Stopped in for a look - For the XR8's advertised price on the window is just over $60K drive away, choice of black or dark grey. Curious to know how many kilometres the rear Dunlop SP's last for...... |

With a waiting time of over a year for the V8 I'd say it was definitely an ecoboost.

There was a manual one being sold privately on here i think with a mere 2500 kays i think and it for sale for a lot longer than i thought, looks like it ended up selling for mid $40k's. What a bargain if true.

It's never too late until there's no more left.
Just traded my 2015 XR6 (@2500Ks) with option pack for the 2016 XR8 (Both winter white autos). To be honest, I was quite pleased with myself for buying the new XR6 back in March this year because I only paid $31k for it and enjoyed that new car leather smell so much each time I drove it. Then I took an XR8 for a test drive and realised that I was missing the blower and a couple of cylinders! Got $30K trade in for the XR6 and paid an extra $22.5K changeover including the on-roads. Good deals are still around - don't wait too long or you could be sorry! |
