Spinning Donating Members 348 Member For: 15y 5m Posted 04/01/13 05:51 AM Share Posted 04/01/13 05:51 AM HelloConcerned about the direction FPV , now that they 've moved away from their home in Campbellfield , I decided to take possession of a FPV held in stock .. With not a great selection available in GT and those whom held GT-P asking $80+ , I decided today to place a deposit on a Black RSpec with SatNav and Premium Brakes .... The car is coming from interstate( I wanted the car to be equipped with SatNav and the dealer sourced the car with both SatNav and Premium Brakes from an interstate dealer) and should be here , if all goes well, by the end of the month !!!!!! Wahooooooooo!!!! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 17y 2d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 05/01/13 01:55 AM Share Posted 05/01/13 01:55 AM Yeah the FPV badge will be gone on the next GT series. Should have bought the last off the line, though it was a manual red one, not black. You get it in auto or manual?A pic of the blokes that probably built yours in this article by the esteemed Josh Dowlinghttp://www.couriermail.com.au/news/national/end-of-an-era-as-ford-takes-its-high-performance-cars-in-house/story-fndo20i0-1226538571657 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinning Donating Members 348 Member For: 15y 5m Posted 05/01/13 04:11 AM Author Share Posted 05/01/13 04:11 AM I ve not been told what 'no' the car is , as the interstate dealer would not release the car and details until they get paid . The car is definitely a auto ... I asked a few times , in the hope that they may have made a mistake and in fact found it to be a manual . I would 've taken the car in either manual or auto... However, I had not driven the manual in either the F6 or GT335 , but have driven the auto several times and having come from a manual F6 - found the auto a lot of fun as it gives you that more time to smile whilst you listen to the bi modal exhaust and whistle from the supercharger...I saw the black in about August and very much hated it !!!!! and have been a fan of either the Winter White or Vixen Red... However, as my concerns grew over the direction FPV would be now taking in 2013 and in the future, I 've come to like the black ...that is once I saw one driven on the road in the Yarra Ranges - from that point, I told myself , if I could n't get the White White I could live with the black and so it's been a slow conditioning !!!! If you will . I guess , when you see the black and those wheels you can not mistake it for anything other than a RSpec ... And that has got to speak volumes for the car - you will definitely know it's a RSpec !!! Hahaha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boog72 Donating Members 107 Member For: 16y 4m Gender: Male Location: Brisbane, Qld Posted 05/01/13 12:00 PM Share Posted 05/01/13 12:00 PM You will love it mate!! Stock standard they go well and the handling compared to other FPV's from the factory is much better, traction from the lights to powering out of roundabouts is awesome. As for the black version yeah there is no mistaking what it is....I drove mine back from doing a 400km country trip and past a black one on the highway...gave him a wave...no acknowledgement!!! Congratulations and you wont be able to get out of it!! lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
