T1 and T2 did not have the stroker. They are still sort after vehicles. T3 had the stroker and in your face body kit but lost out on some of the luxuries and other enginering items of their predessors. All three are limited build and limited in numbers. The Brembo brake package also makes them an interesting vehicle. All in all they were the pinacle of the AU model. I own both an XR8 and a TE50 and while I love both, the T-series is worlds apart from the XR in so many ways, all of them positive. Though for me the XR8 twin headlight is still my favourite feature of any AU.
