nathanz Inactive Members 1 Member For: 16y 7m 25d Posted 03/03/11 10:59 PM Share Posted 03/03/11 10:59 PM I bought a Force 6 from a melbourne salvage damage auction about 6 months back now. Bought it thinking it was only slightly damaged in the rear - came with a few surprises - lets just say it needed a rebuild.. hahaha im assuming this car was not standard in its previous owners hands.. Anyways long story short - forged pistons and rods, few other mods and tuning - couldnt be happier with it. Black + black wheels + red leather interior.Plates were TIPSY6 in melbourne.. if anyone knows the owner I would love to know what the hell the story with this car was lol? Also have a question - I see different numbers of how many of these were mad.. is there a definate number.. mines #91 =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a Force 6 in my 2 favourite colours. But the money didnt work out. :(I've heard 2 different build figures for these cars. Russellw on AFF will swear black and blue its 65, and if you have another number your wrong. But when I asked FPV, they told me 99. Since yours is the first I've heard of above build number 61, then it would have to be 99 cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently there were about 110 built. I will clear this up soon as I find the article/s again. I would have also presumed there were a certain number produced for each model, not just 1?

I've heard that number used a few times, and always known they sold a handful more 8's than 6's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It states there were a total of 99 Force 6's built. Unless someone can prove otherwise then there's no reason to doubt this number.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edge33 New Member 11 Member For: 15y 8m 21d Posted 01/08/13 02:12 AM Share Posted 01/08/13 02:12 AM Torkfreik, there was no limited production run for the Force models. A 10k premium over the F6 at the time was enough to keep the sale numbers low. Plus they were only on sale for around 18 months before the FG arrived.
