I own the 2 I have now. Don't know whats happenng with the next one,(in the next 3 months) though more than likely I will pay cash for it too.

How hard can it be to find a nice MANUAL Blueprint BA XR6??
(3 dealers visited yesterday, and not ONE to be found....)

Mine OWES me and OWNS me.

It's black and evil and does sinister things with my money.

If I'm one of the 54 who won the big one it'll be replaced by a GT or Pursuit!!

I've owned one registered car. I bought the 302 XD in 1991 and still have it, but just recently spent more than twice what i paid for on it.
The rest are company cars, which is'nt counted he he.
