G'day Members,
New proud owner of a 09 Upgrade SX6 Aurion Liquid Metal in colour in Sydney purchased a week ago , I am impressed with it so far and still getting used to this front wheel drive thing after getting out of a VE SS ute, the SX6 i bought was apparently a media demo unit with 5500 k's (4500k's when the dealer took posession of it,thanks to the manager clocking up 1000k's) No Leather and has what i am led to believe has the option pack 1 with the reverse camera.
1st tank of fuel would have been about the 500k to 530k mark as a guess( filled up early for the week) which im impressed about compared to the thirsty guzzling Chev V8 which with 20k on the clock was struggling to get on a good week 400k's of stop start local k's and a little of motorway kilometres (Not much of a difference between motorway and the stop start k's in sydney ).
The Aurion will be getting a wheel/tyre change and reading from other posts 19" or 20" seems to be the size of choice but i will probably go the 18" as i dont want the ride affected too much( i prefer the comfort over style with my vehicles,but these standard wheels have to go),Headlights will eventually be converted to the 6000k HID and front park lights changed to LED's once i find a small handed person to do the job with ease....(thanks to DJ KOR'S post on FAQ'S about Aurions and the instructions on how to do things ),Last but not least to get fitted a tow bar to destroy the rear end look and have been fitted on every car so far that i have had.
Anyway thats enough of my ramblings and i look forward should time permit, Attend a meet one day to meet fellow enthusiasts of these cars
Cheers
Brendan
