Default Ford Super Pursuit or XR8

Does anyone have any experience with either?

Now that Ford have pulled the plug on making both of these cars there are some good deals from Ford Dealers peeling off their old 2010 stock.

Front what I can tell the Super Pursuit has all the bells and whistles BUT the XR8 does have the 2300KG towing capacity which while not necessary for me, still a bit of a bonus?

Price is within 5K of each other so not so concerned there. Using it primarily as a new company errrrrr car?

Any comments?

Buy an Evo X Spook and without too much drama you get 300 kW at all 4 wheels

I'm now an official ricer with a Bathurst model kicking out 270 kW

Safe in the rain too

I like my rally cars!

Super Pursuit, nicer interior, better ICC and holds its value better than the XR8.
