The side on shot's probably the best I've seen of that angle - definitely looks different to how I pictured it.

Really want to see one in the flesh now.

Still not liking the arse end.

Lol dags, im honestly a bit devo the T did not get the FPV 310 and brembos. Should have sent it out like the xr8.

The blown 8's are so awesome. But the T's will be legendary. Its easily the best engine manufactured in this country and has etched its name in history among some of the toughest straight sixes in the world.

To me the worst part of all this for me is knowing its the end of the road for the Barra. The 5.0l will of course live on in other vehicles.

Yeh bit cruddy it didnt get the "typical" last model F6 engine but it's surely to do with the well matched 3576 turbo

No excuse on the BREMBO's though !

Last hurrah with a luke warm feel, but so sad to see a brilliant packaged full size family sedan get the arse and typically after its best part fault free now

Luke warm indeed, I still fancy an xr8.

As for fault free and reliability your absolutely right. Yes things like sheet metal brake rotors are a bit average. But 450rwkw+ on a stock bottom end is like...1uz stuff. Almost unheard of, and that ridiculous torque delivery and numbers v8's cant match. Oh well.

These cars are going to go full vl spec once they stop making them. The cult they have created in just 10 years is amazing enough given today's economy and all the poofs driving golfs..

Edit: had to add this, you might be right about the 76 jet. So GTX76's all round then! They are on special atm ffs ford

Totally agree with the above.

I've been loving and hating Ford for 40 years.

They often get it wrong....BUT..... When they get it right, awesome!

Trust me , BA-FH XR6T WILL be CULT!!!

So will the supercharged V8s.

I don't really care about the FHs and future Fords as I will be one those old guys still driving around in my F6 in 20 years time, simple as that.

The fact they love E85 (the fuel of the future) just makes it all the more betterah!
