People a bit worried that a Force 6 driver will toast there XR6T, while sitting in a more luxurious interior??It's obviously not the biggest waste of time as there is obviously a market for them. I'd buy one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were packed with all the features of a "luxury" car then there would be less complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd buy one. ←That's not what's such a waste of time about them.It sh*ts me that they couldn't come up with a new look for the front end, it's the same as a GT (and not different enough to an F6). It's got nothing to do with being tosted by one (dumb ).The Farce models can't seem to make up their mind and look to be stuck half way between a GT and something else. A car like this needs it's own identity. A person who spends over $70k on a car (especially a performance orientated one) want's people to know his car is something special by it's exterior looks, not keep them guessing. HSV don't simply stick the same front end on all of their cars for a reason.Anyone looking at the Farce 6 or 8 will think, "There goes another cap backwards boy who had to deface his GT/F6 by pulling the wing off."

I dunno, but I won't be confusing it with a GT any time soon.Force 8, no wing. Again, bit hard to miss.And so what if people are 'guessing'?? The Force range are a subtle option. Potential buyers I imagine would be those thinking 'I don't want people knowing what I drive'.Anyone looking at the Farce 6 or 8 will think, "There goes another cap backwards boy who had to deface his GT/F6 by pulling the wing off."So what if people take the wing off?? Big wings aren't to everyone's taste. Oh wait, Force 8 just made sense... Duh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Leather is pure classy and elegant, as is the wood grain finish,reverse sensors, the subtle chrome touches,electric seats,sports steering wheel etc etc. When you do your sums it does add up. I think they are targeting a mature age group and they will sell very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My main objection is that they don't have their own 'unique' look. For me, they are too similar to what's on offer. My point is that they'd probably sell a lot more if they put some real effort into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
