i've had it for a week, and i haven't even taken interest on its other accessories... all i wanna do is drive the sonnuvagun!

Welcome to the club, dude. That's the thing about the FXT. Just when you decide to use cruise control, some entity whispers in your ear, "Floor it!", and you give in to temptation. Just last Sunday, I was on the SLEX cruising at 100, when a Sta Fe tailgates, a practice I find very irritating. I move past 120, 140, 160 and he's still there. I move aside, thinking he's in a hurry and he still sticks to my rear. So I floor the gas, the turbo kicks in and before I know it, I'm hitting 200 and the Sta Fe becomes the size of a Matchbox in my rear view mirror. Yup, it's a blast to drive this SUV.

he got an lgt not an fxt. anyway i know what you mean, the fxt is truly a monster suv that no other asian suv can beat in terms of raw power and performance. only european suv's will beat the fxt when it comes to performance.:nod:

btw dindop is your lgt a wagon or sedan?

foresterx, it's a wagon in galaxy blue :grin: one reason i went for the LGT is the selector: I, S, and S#... with the FXT, parang halimaw-mode lagi, walang tipid-mode hihihihi...

kung nagka taon pala na lgt din ang kinuha ko parehas na parehas tayo pati kulay yon din ang balak ko kunin. palitan ko lang ng 19" prodrive rims in gunmetal black.

Dami ko na nakikita na LGT with that kind of set-up, plus HKS muffler with titanium tip.. :grin:

dindop: You can shout at them that wagons aren't always mommy-cars & grocery-getters. :grin: Just like the Audi RS6, deym. Those cars are beastly!

how i wish na hamunin nila ako sa nlex or sctex hehehehe... but seriously, the beauty of the subie is not only on the power/torque aspect, to me it's more on the handling, parang nasa riles ng train ang pakiramdam ahahahaha...

wag di bagay sa stock rims. bili ka na lang linea corse mura lang yon tapos benta mo stock rims mo. pag nag karon ka na extra don ka na lang bumili prodrive nasa 100k+ din kasi 1 set non.

kahit ganito na linea corse na lang muna less than 50k lang isang set.
