Logo-Specific mats with 5th logo-Specific Build No. (out of 200)-Available in Silver or Black OnlyThe total Package costs $9500 over a normal GT, but for the 5th Anniversary it will only cost $5500.Now this is supposed to be hush hush at the moment, but I really want to gauge what enthusiasts think about it.Cheers,Pat Edited 26/09/08 01:13 PM by tab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT290 Member 320 Member For: 19y 4m 12d Location: Brisbane Posted 26/09/08 07:12 AM Share Posted 26/09/08 07:12 AM that's bull S H I T ! , it really annoys me that they do this.. yes limit the production to 200 but put somthing "really special" with the 5th Anniversary? Maybe 320kw?!? even a 5 kw difference would get buyers? maybe even make it look A LOT! different exterior wise so when someone buys it they know, hey this GT isn't just another GT! (no pun intead to GT owners I use to own one too) but you all get the idea.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveO Member 250 Member For: 21y 1m 22d Location: City Posted 26/09/08 07:49 AM Share Posted 26/09/08 07:49 AM The wheels look alright I suppose but they should have been standard issue on all the FG FPV GTs by now... The 5th anniversary stripe just looks try-hard with the massive 5 on the side. I really don't think they've done enough (they don't even have R-Spec suspension this time around).
