We are excited about the return of the XR8 as we have received a large number of requests to bring it back.We have a wonderful history going back 12 years as FPV, and of course many years before that in our performance relationship with Tickford. You have been a part of this journey, this history and we thank you for your loyalty and support in making the FPV models and engines celebrated successes.We will stand behind you and your FPV, offering service, parts and technical support for many years to come.We understand that this news may not be what you have wanted to hear. However, be assured that we have planned a series of actions during 2014 to ensure the final FPV models’ iconic status is appropriately celebrated. We look forward to sharing more details of those plans next year.We thank you for your support of FPV." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
