Default MY09 Tribeca vs MY09 Foz

As title suggests, so please give me helpful pros and cons...have family so safely first, ease of use for mom is first priority and must be able to tuned / modified for best performance as a serious quick Mom mobile. No smart arse posts just constructive advice.



No..I am not selling or trading GTB STI

I don't know if I could walk out and look at the Tribeca every day without breaking down in tears due to how ugly it is, but its a fantastic car (van). My cousin has one and it's perfect for the family.
The Foz would be my pick though due to the amount of mods available for it and it will drive more like a car than a van.

+1 for gt foz because it is a good base for mods.
-10 000 000 for tribeca because it is farkin ugly and has very little chance of being improved with any mods that you may wish to do.

Hey Dave, my sister is possibly selling her White 09XT premium
it has full factory bodykit, 19" rims, K-sport coilovers, custom
catback exhaust, brand new tyres and has done less than 15,000kms
(im pretty sure)



It cost her over 65k all up but she's looking for just over 50k.

Pm me if you want anymore info.

Wayne

Tribeca would probably better suit your needs, but voted Forry as well I just couldn't look at the Tribeca every day and I would think Forry resale will be better cause the Tribeca wont get any better looking with age.
