Guest EGOXRT Guests Posted 17/02/08 12:42 AM Share Posted 17/02/08 12:42 AM This thing better has some revolutionary mechanical advances, because cosmetically it ain't happening. That all new model vibe isn't quite there, not like the VE achieved..

hard-on Member 134 Member For: 19y 4m 29d Posted 17/02/08 01:28 AM Share Posted 17/02/08 01:28 AM This sounds good, can't wait to see what fpv has got to offer.http://www.drive.com.au/Editorial/ArticleD...p;pg=1&vf=0The new FG Falcon turbo has a similar output to the FPV Typhoon (270kW/533Nm versus 270kW/550Nm) but improvements to electronics, driveability and the way it transmits the power to the road as well as revisions to the transmissions (including a new six-speed manual). It also has a Formula One-style launch control mode for the manual designed to improve initial acceleration, suggesting a 0-100km/h time of a little over five seconds should be achievable.
