The 6 speed in the Falcon's is amazing though, same as the Jags, etc.

Definitely a trump card over the Holden, although the 6 speed in the VE SS-V that Karl had, and the one in my dads, are both very smooth too.

I've not caught it out yet i.e. unnecessary thunks or clunks whilst kicking down the trans, although I have found a few in my mates BFII XR6T whilst driving it. In general though, the gearshifts in the Ford box are imperceptible and buttery smooth.
