The 2.8 turbos ain't that bad with a decent exhaust and tune.
And a dam lot more efficient than a 4.5L petty..

Shop around mate, test drive heaps.

Got a 2.8 and happy, yeh not the fastest off the mark but it gets me from A to B. I quite enjoy the 80-100km/h on the roads, gives us all a chance to sight see while driving.

ditto for me catchinjack, my 2.8 will cruise all day and it's reasonably fuel efficient. i feel like king of the road when i'm driving her.
