Under-Pants Member 2,103 Member For: 16y 4m 26d Gender: Not Telling Posted 26/09/08 05:51 PM Share Posted 26/09/08 05:51 PM Those rims are absolute IMO... being the only real diff from the standard FG (Falcon Gay (looking now)) GT apart from those stripes which are as lame dick as grandads erectile disorder.... consider the GT even more fuguly.How about they get an FG F6, drop it a couple of inches onto some firmer springs, get those sexc graphite 5 spokes widend to 10.5" with some 285 tyres and stick jumbo jet brakes on the mofo and maybe wind up the boost a little... then update the boot badge without caring about upsetting the V8 brigade as 310 is a pile of ...that figure isnt far off representing Rear Wheel killerwasps.

PDIDDY Senior Member Member 159 Member For: 18y 28d Gender: Male Posted 26/09/08 08:48 PM Share Posted 26/09/08 08:48 PM What does "SANNIVERSARY" mean on those stripes? Surely it needs to be "5th Anniversary" nice and clear. And besides, the 5th anniversary (for those here that are married) is usually wood or silver, not stripes or leather. As others have said, it's just a try hard to move metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 20y 9m 9d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 26/09/08 10:05 PM Share Posted 26/09/08 10:05 PM What a surprise, another sticker pack from ford and FPV. Stickers just do not cut it anymore FPV....WAKEUPWhile a shaker or blower is a good idea, getting the car reapproved for ADR's is not worth the cost for limited numbers.FPV would be better looking at what people are doing with there cars in the after market world and offering some customisations.Getting suspension, audio, wheel or external mods with factory warranty would bring them more $$$'s.Going into see Senna and ordering a F6 with Bilstiens/whiteline suspension, upgraded JBL speakers, 18x10" wheels with wider rubber and having the rear wing and panda eyes removed could sway me to upgrade to a FG.FPV are a low volume car maker and need to start to act like one. Personalising their customers cars is something HSV have been doing for years, taking it a notch higher is the best way forward for FPV to remain profitable.Releasing only one special model each year that offers something more than a sticker pack and limited numbers is also mandatory. With Fords FG sales plummeting, FPV need to realise it is not as simple as pumping crap out their door and the buyers will lap it up. There are more choices, that offer more than what FPV/Ford offer currently. With poor aftersales service, FPV need to give us a good reason to upgrade and since the release of the F6, FPV have failed to deliver anything worthy.
