Hey all again!

So as u can see I have been keeping a close eye on Fords plans for their up and coming FPV range for the end of the year and early next year! It helps having a mate whos kept in the loop at local ford dealership, so after giving him a couple :bopp: on the ass, he told me to pick up the latest addition of Motor magazine and have a look at the read up for the BOSS 351 Allan Moffat Bathurst edition pending to be released later this year after the Bathurst 1000 where Ford will unveil their new Hero car!

So whats new?

well first off the car looks insane! (check pics) from the Rims to the body kit to the front spoiler and beyond! its an absolute jaw dropper to look at! It also has the LED Audi/HSV styled day lights. It looks to have some added sport suspension and the GT-P Brembo brake package!..... What else? well it seems Ford are looking at including 2 small water-to-air intercooling sytems to keep the intake temps down, as well as a heat exchanger been fitted to allow the engineers to manage the intake temps as well! so overall what an amazing package!!!! whether it'll match the exact description given! Ford haven't released that detail yet! so guess we all have to wait and see!

So I guess my question is... and well hasn't been answered as no one really seems to know!

Will the new FGMKII range GT335's come with the added Intercooling system? one would think so! and will they add some slight body changes to the car like the Bathurst edition? e.g. daylights? I guess everyone has their owns opinions and im basically just giving you all some insight information from what I've heard/ seen! Hopefully the FG MKII range has some little surprises for us Ford fans! would be a nice treat! :drinks:

Mmmmm looks good, though I'm worried about the daytime running lights being too gaudy. Liking the 351 centrecaps :) This will finally exlain why AM has been hanging around FPV the last 2 years or so! Hope it's real.

edit: holes in bonnet to allow twin coolers to be more effectve?
