Well time is coming to buy my new car, only hting is, i cant decide what to go with. Both cars are great to drive, both look very nice. Only main concern is i dont know any one with a GT-P or GT to know if there is any known problems, wondering if anyone has heard anything?

Main reason for the switch to ford is simply how much discount i can get buying new, and also trade in price of my current car(holden wont go higher then 15k ford will give 21k) and i also get the bonus 15% family worker discount).
I know this is a holden forum, but any help on issues with GT-P would be great

If you have to get a ford go the F6 typhoon.. its quicker than the GT-P...

I like the R8's but i suppose the GT-P would be ok. I dont mind the look of the Typhoon, but theres something about V8's :)
EDIT: I love the start buttons :D

Go the GT-P dont worry about the finance they will probably shaft you on the interest rate and make up their losses there. Yes i drive a Holden so tempting to step over the other side.
