ok first of all the xf isn''t my car, its my dads. ive got a protege. i've drivin it twice now, but i haven't been spinnin the tires in it. my dad told me it was fwd yesterday and i was like wtf? so i googled a few sites for the specs and the first 2 sites said it was fwd. so i guess i was wrong... sorry guys. i'll talk to my dad about it tomorrow. and don't tell me i'm mechanically inclined with engines, i have barely looked at our xf. we've had it for a week now.
