What a fu*cking embarrasment, and if it's true then the Falcon is dead, at least in sprit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-MARTY54- Member 124 Member For: 15y 10m 29d Posted 16/04/10 12:37 PM Share Posted 16/04/10 12:37 PM Reading in Herald Sun today, the XR8 is finished once the new regulations come in mid-year. Coyote 5l is for FPV only, XR8 is dead. Not surprised. I still don't think even the new V8 coyotes will outperform the XR6T or F6. We'll see. The supercharged version 320kw or so will still be lucky to go sub 5.0sec 0-100. I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
