XR6 = better sports saloon than Aurion Sportivo. And no we aren't talking gadgets and gizmo's and nonsense. And for the asking price of the Aurion. That's an XR6T with a couple options. And the XR6T is a proper sports saloon, don't say otherwise.
Now your splitting hairs. The highlighted bit is YOUR opinion i can live with that no issues, i can only give an opinion as i havnt driven an Aurion.
They are both povo pack cars with a body kit, RWD, FWD, AWD it makes no difference to the main buyers of these cars. Just because JC said so doesnt make it so.
Yeah of course the XR6T is better ill admit that for sure and never said it wasnt.
It doesnt even compete with the XR6 or the Sportivo, even though it is priced comparatively with the later.
It just annoys me that people write cars off because of what they think is right, before they have driven one, they read what journos type or havnt even driven many cars themselves to get half an idea.
