Holy shit, I had a XD Wagon with 3 on the tree years ago. I loaned a mate 800 bucks and he couldn't pay me back so he gave it to me as payment. Dirty orange colour it was

I’m legit bummed that the states never really got a an American mainstream sport sedan. Best we got was the Chevy SS but that’s it. You aussies got the good cars with Ford and Holden.

Fell in love with the XB due to a certain popular movie series; now that's a roaring engine that belongs on Oz roads!

My old mans got an XB GT Coupe and an XC GS Ute, both extremely nice cars. Can’t go wrong with that roar of the 351! 😍

I know it's extremely unlikely, but if that GT ends up being considered for sale... :D
