I went to a car dealers about 5 years ago to look at a used SS Holden (VT series 2, I think). The dealers here had them priced about $5k above the same year model XR8 (AU), so I bought the AU. Since then, I've had:
AU1 XR8 manual & AU1 XR6 auto
AU2 V8 Forte Auto (still with the XR6)
EF I6 Fairmont (still with the XR6)
AU2 Forte wagon (still with the XR6)
Au2 Forte Wagon & AU1 XR8 auto
Prior to that, I had a VS2 Berlina wagon (it was traded in for the AU1 XR6), an EB V8 Fairmont Ghia, an EF Falcon, a HG wagon, and a Nissan or two. So until the first AU1 XR8, I would say I was a swinging car buyer, but now really love my Fords.
