I wonder if it has been delayed to match the delayed release of the Supercharged V8 which seems to be in September given the Internet chatter. Im surprised that none of the car mags have any scoops etc on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSP Member 89 Member For: 17y 6m 15d Posted 02/07/10 10:47 AM Share Posted 02/07/10 10:47 AM As much as I understand what's going on and how things happen, I've got to say I'm extremely disappointed by the approach (or lack of) Ford and FPV have chosen. There are very limited numbers of new 5.4L FPV's in stock around the country, so I can't see why they couldn't have started a nice drip feed to create and maintain interest in the new launch. You just need to look at how FordUS are approaching their release of new vehicles for an idea on 'how it should be done'...XR8 have been basically built to order for a long time now also, so why the lack of information by Ford on it's future branding and positioning? My latest info suggests that the driveline (diff, diff bush, tailshaft, what ever you want to believe) issues are sorted... so I expect official info soon.

bunna Donating Members 813 Member For: 18y 2m 20d Posted 03/07/10 12:35 AM Share Posted 03/07/10 12:35 AM Simple answer - RE: the V8, who would go out and buy a Boss if Ford released the details. Suicidal move if done too early. Interest will be just fine - its just an engine change anyway.RE: the turbos, resources are stretched, priority was given to naturally aspirated 6 as that's the volume seller.

CSP Member 89 Member For: 17y 6m 15d Posted 03/07/10 06:12 AM Share Posted 03/07/10 06:12 AM that's not the answer. You could also argue, which is just as important, how many sales have Ford handed to Holden/HSV because they've chosen not to inform their customers???As I said, there are many BOSS cars left out there and FPV aren't building BOSS engines as of more than a month ago!
