XtRmn8 570Nm @1800rpm Donating Members 2,441 Member For: 21y 3m 12d Gender: Male Location: Perth, WA Posted 31/07/09 12:25 AM Share Posted 31/07/09 12:25 AM Supposed to me the same 315kw as the rest of the FPV V8 range from what I have read. Will slot in between then current XR8 and GT. The name has something to do with the new V8 (5.0L) that Ford will be getting soon, 302 is supposed to be related to the capacity rather then power.They must have a lot of Boss V8's laying around and making a special edition V8 will help move them maybe?

The quoted lower power is to not offend GT owners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSP Member 89 Member For: 17y 8m 4d Posted 12/08/09 03:30 AM Share Posted 12/08/09 03:30 AM Looks like no more XR8 in the Ford lineup next year.Whether FPV take on the XR8 is uncertain, or they're using the GS as the entry into the V8 market.
