It's pretty obvious that people just simply do not understand how powerfull these cars are and just how great to drive they are. It's not about stickers, scoops and badges all the time. This car is a real icon and was put together with true passion. Not by a bunch of school kids with an XBOX or some tools on the dole! If you want scoops and badges with 1000 kws on it then piss off and do it to you're V6 VN commodore.

alcoholic mum yes it is. It is basically the old Pontiac G8. And the G8 replaced the GTO( Monaro). The point I was making, is that I feel Ford Motor company shot themselves in the foot by not offering a competitive model line up to GM, in the United States. I would have loved to had the opportunity to buy a Falcon with a V8. The only option I have car wise, is a Mustang. Having a 4 door option would be nice. I bet if they offered this model in the video, it would have sold like hot cakes in the U.S. Especially having the same Powerplant as the GT500. AND it's a manual transmission. I'm exhausted from seeing only autos. Takes away from the overall driving experience in my opinion.

Rayman 1 i get ya, Detroit ford is greedy just the same as GM. Shutting down both aussie plants to sell cheaper, less safe and unreliable imports. Our governments actually paid them millions to stay but they took the money and the production away from Australia
@rayman12306 жыл бұрын
alcoholic mum I agree. Maybe if they quit packaging things into vehicles that jack up the price, more people could afford and buy their vehicles. They need to quit the mindset of marketing to the ones who can afford all the extras. They limit their product base by doing that. Selling by mass volume exceeds the need to boost price to gain profit from a few.

Dan P the first FPV gts had a 5.4 iron block v8 Boss engine. In 260, 290 then 315 kw. They had quad cam 32valve. To reduce front weight they changed to the 5.0 litre alloy block v8. They shipped out the mustangs coyote engine and stripped it out and cleaned out the ports and oil and waterways and threw the internals in the bin. They rebuilt it with better Aussie parts. They then gave it the quad cam heads and supercharged it. They renamed the engine the Miami because they had no coyote parts in it. A Cleveland unfortunately would be too heavy but a 5.8 Miami .... hmmmmm

The holden has the advantage no ways about but the Ford has a passionate car that is a true muscle car. I belive the best car ever made in the modern era in Australia was the holden coupe or hsv gtos still an amazing car for its age and it still looks all Australian Muscle if only ford Australia brought out a last coupe Gt that would of been the Boss, imagine a Gt Cobra with this motor in one. Oh and only weighs 1300kg dreams can come true.. Oh well the Mustang and comaro's ar coming and we will forget about the Aussie Gt and SS. We probably lose the v8 supercars and get the NASCAR going round and round.
