As I said in the other thread, I like them all. But I have a hankering for a smooth black XR, nicely built 289W, and a certain set of wheels I forgot the name of

A machined steel stickshift gives a clue to the car's technical highlight--a locally engineered Holinger fully sequential gearshift, enabling race quick gear changes while savouring Sequential 's 215 kW high performance 5-litre V8, its adjustable 'Ultimate Suspension' and Pirelli P-Zero-shod 19" Roman Autotek Speedline wheels.

215kW? 5-speed sequential transmission? Those both should have been in the EL GT.. imagine how much better it would have been...

Impossible to pick just one !!! Any of the XA,XBGT or XA-XC GS coupes, the XR6 and 8's, XWGT or a XD V8 would do me fine.

For all its romance the XY GTHO has to be the thing that gets my heart started. For practicality and economy the AU taxi is the winner.
