Bomber Carnage on the Garage Floor Donating Members 3,994 Member For: 14y 11m 12d Gender: Male Location: Gold Coast Posted 18/08/11 08:29 AM Share Posted 18/08/11 08:29 AM yeah we keep hearing this. Ford do have form dropping models or engines that bite them on the arse later however. Remember when they dumped the V8? I'll either buy a GS, or go back to the dark side. It's not worth losing sleep over.

As long as it doesn't remind me of pretend XRs like the Mondeo and Focus (Zzzzzzzzz in every way for mine) then maybe its not all lost and it could be a positive move - but I have to admit, with fuel prices and "green" views dominating decision making from "the suits", I have minimal confidence and hope I'm wrong......... ps: HSV GAY, how can you buy a new GS if it doesn't exist?

My brother inlaw also works at ford at broadmeadows production line like Bunna. Bunna can you confirm or deny this?

CBXRT Banned 643 Member For: 14y 5m Gender: Male Posted 18/08/11 09:10 AM Share Posted 18/08/11 09:10 AM (edited) No worries HSV, so many people forget it will affect the whole range (6, 6T, 8 and SC8) if they do pull the trigger.....Maybe bring the new Boss Mustang here instead at a good price - call that the XR and we might be pleasantly surprised!! (0% chance of that happening unfortunately...)
