Have they gone back to the Dark Argent rims of series 1 BF?Actually, GT rims look pretty much the same too.The rims on the T and XR8 look like 18's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have they gone back to the Dark Argent rims of series 1 BF?Nice rims on the F6 but fark they are over 2 years old now, imo I think we will see different rims come time of the model launchDont know if I like the section in front of the intercooler were there is no mesh, it looks unfinishedI hear a rumour going around that F6 will have 310kw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Launch control and exhaust valve should suit the manual lovers and the V8 boys.Me likes the interior, dash, layout, materials, looks better quality, more refined and new tricks like one touch lane change -nice touches. Certainly did a good job inside.Me Kinda likes the exterior XR6T and XR8, looks sharp a nice evolution, not quite as mean looking headlights - lost that gnarly look of the BF nose (esp on BF F6). Not sure about the outer headlights being smaller than the inner headlights - so wich is main beam & which is high beam? Looks a little Toyota Aurionish - looks less like a ford, more like a mix of Ford, Subaru, Toyota. I too think it's exterior look will date too quickly. XR8 shoulda got twin tailpipes - it'll piss the V8 boys off.Me doesnt like Racoons - Not Mean lookin, just silly lookin. New F6 looks like it has a stupid Grin on its face rather than a gnarly menacing look. It also looks too complex in the front, and too slopey on the back, Just MHO.And whats with the lack of scallops under the FPV headlights, that became signature for the performance Falcon range with the BF's - the FG XR range looks are better at this point than the FPVsAnd what the F*** is it with the red "START ENGINE" button?And who forgot to put the grill on the F6 intercooler?Glad I got in on the R SPec. It says FORD all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad I got in on my BF2. Dunno though, engine sounds like a nice bit o' kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
