It must have been shagged, my 5L is ridiculous when it comes to traction. Only now with 8" wheels and really good tyres can I get anything close to a decent start. |

Could have been, i honestly didnt look at kms of it, i only drove it coz i was being nosey n the salesman walked up n said "take her for a quick drive" lol, i didnt say anything about what i owned..
It was in good condit tho in and out, not great but good for a 10 y/o car.
What makes the fbt so fkn dead off the line then; its an animal over 40km/hr  |

In comparison to the I6 I wouldn't buy the V8 again.. Unless I had some serious money to replace everything.   |

Haha, now you tell me!
Nah, in all seriousness it beats the pants off my i6, im very happy and sound is awesome - plus the power from 2.5-4k rpm is insane compared to an i6.  |

Shane yeah its pretty good for 550,000km!!!
The FBT may carry some pretty sever torque tags to reduce low end torque like the AUv8's are plauged with. |

| the V8 has grunt and a nice note compared to a i6 with a 2inch exhuast plus with the V8 it feels nice and tuff to drive as the i6 can feel like a boat,personally I think ford set up the V8's better as not many are produced compared to the i6. |
