I suppose it’s not bad for $120k but then again that’s only 290rwks. My Ute made 330rwks with Injectors, Exhaust and edit so for a couple of grand ontop of the purchase price of an F6 you would blow it away!!! Then if you were to spend the other $50k left over I’m sure you could do a Simon and have her pumping out 540rwkws and still take a trip around the world with spending money.

I think Ill stick to my F6 thanks

:crybaby:

If the tea leaves are being read correctly, then may be time to close down the FPV workshop and divert the vehicles to a more competitive business in the Bayswater area.

Expensive Daewoo V8's never really sound that great for a V8

Obviously didn't here one with a good exhaust and 4-into-1 extractors. Mine sounded sick. Maybe not as good as a Cleveland 351, but still good and makes my F6 sound like a sewing machine. The new Gen IV sound better stock and I'll bet the 7l unit sounds sick with an aftermarket exhaust.

That sounds awesome. I know this engine in the current z06 (1450kg but) does mid to low 11's stock. Wouldn't be surprised to see the Late model camira do low 12's to high 11's.

As for ford, they've got the supercharged 5.4 (as fitted to the GT 500 Mustang and GT40) sitting on the shelf if they want it. It has 373kw in the mustang and over 400 in the GT40.

But at $120k, there won't be much of a market for it I would have thought. Chances are ford aus won't bother I guess. But I'd love to see a hipo typhoon released, which should be able to match it at a far lower cost

no market for them? :laughing: They will sell them all in under a month if not all presold. The previous 427 was all presold and when it was announced that it would be too dear to be produced many owners said how much do you need? 200k? ok just build it. Put it into perspective, a gtho 3 is pushing a million and there is more than 100-150 left so 120k for this car, they will be sold in a flash.

I hope they come out.

Another great "aussie" performance car on the road. :laughing:

Besides, we might finally get people who want to play with us again. At least for a little while....

Way too dear for a Taxi. No matter what they do, it will still be a Commodore. And there are plenty of faster, cheaper ones out there. As far as warranty goes, we all know how good that is. :blush:

I'd much rather put into something that's worth the coin, such as a GTR, Audi, M3.
