Nice XT6 in Washington

[K_Dub]

This one almost had me calling my sister in Seattle until I noticed it's not 4WD. Great condition with low miles!

I miss my XT Turbo. That thing would go anywhere, now I scrape in my driveway. I need a Frankenwedge.

too much money for a 2wd.

I agree. Plus the XT6 only came with an Auto and no locking rear, so the search is still on for a 5speed XT Turbo 4WD. I'd love to find one with that odometer though.

I guess I'm just feeling nostalgic as I haven't replaced an axle in a couple of years. The full time 4WD ate them like candy.

Funny you should mention that. I had a 86 GL wagon 4wd and it ate the pass side axles!! The exhaust manifold was like 1 milimeter away from the inner joint it so I think it just melted the boot!!

wrong, the xt-6 is very common in 5-speed however there was no five speed fwd, all the manuals were four wheel drive. also it was available with a clutch style lsd for the rear but it was a $800 option, so they are sum what rare.
I miss my xt6, selling it was one of the dumbest things i have done.

I stand corrected. Thanks for the info, I'd been fed a line by some schmuck selling his auto XT6 a couple years ago, and have been repeating his lies ever since. Mine was a XT Turbo GL-10 with all the trimmings. A great ride on or off road, but too many jumps in the dunes turned the air suspension into a back breaking no suspension. The plus side of it was that having only 2in of clearance, skinny 13in rims, and the stiffest ride on the planet made me a very good drifter. That was the funnest car I've ever owned. I'll have another someday... After all; an Alcyone by any other name still makes me feel the same.

Yeah, that guy is dreaming.
I've seen several people trying to sell XT/XT6's for exorbitant amounts.
Even if the market wasnt the way it is right now, they would never get that price.
But, time to show off!


I won my class at last years WCSS10.
And I converted a 3.9 rear diff to a LSD

OK, how much for yours?

I've been looking at these for sale for a week. I'd love to get an older daily driver, and take some of the load off the SVX. Besides, I haven't been on a real trail in like nine months, so I'm getting restless. My buddy says I need a truck. Ha.

not kidding, rob, if you go to sell that car i'd like dibs, i love that car

Yeah, I think you are
Besides, there are other people in line in front of you.
Russ, the original owner, wants to buy it back
But wait till next WCSS, its going to have a whole new look

[K_Dub]

Fair enough...

Besides I'd just take it out on a rally road and beat the snot out of it. Your car deserves better. Very nice work.
