Most people that can afford a GT are middle aged. Most definitely those that could afford to purchase and rarely drive.

At that age a 40 year investment in a car doesn't really make sense. Driving it and enjoying the hell out of it makes far more sense.

I agree mate. I will be dead by the time my R spec is worth money as a classic. Probably keep it for one of my sons to own.

FPV's Final Fast Falcon - 351 Reborn ... Wheels May 2014 , stated FPV and Ford bean counters were still worried about the durability of the differential , as well as body strength , and calculated that warranty claims could hit the bottom line hard .

So , in short , the final GT-F ( F for final ) is a basically a RSpec GT (except the F will have Brembo 6/4 kit , and Sat Nav as standard ) with some minor changes to the software to deliver the 351kw ...

The pictures in the magazine , was a cross between a GT-P 335 and GT 5.4 with raccoon eyes..

It's a shame , Ford didn't deliver a limited small batch edition delivering 450kw , with Sunroof , GT-P , and 20' in Wheelset , but then again if they had , I would be forced to stand in line with the respect of the punters ...

Vanity is a ugly disease !!!

This morning news stated 'Ford Dealers are saying that all the 500 GT-F have been sold , and they still have orders to fill (I am not sure I beleive that )'. Dealers 've said that the mix of manual versus automatic transmissions was wrong ! . It is understood that 62% automatic and 38% manual are to be delivered . However Ford , have replied stating over the life of Falcon GT - manaul transmission account for only 26 % of sales ..
