Ross reviews tested this car in the 6 Zf and got 4.51 0-100.

That exhaust looks like something a sub par exhaust shop fabbed up.

[@MrHappy351]

looks like a prototype - the alloys didn't even have centrecaps

[@mrporsche4236]

My uncle has a xygtho phase 3 with a factory 3.9 gears.with the rev restrictor removed and wider tyres on the back he did a 13.4 on the quarter mile and couldve done better ( too much wheelspin ) pretty good!

I have a Ford Felcon GT Boss 335 2014

[@McBeamer94]

Why do I see a Jaguar XF-R from the back? I saw the thumbnail and thought Jag made a new XF-R!

[@user-pf3ud6lh1v]

повезло вам с машинами.

[@alexlast3141]

Its a real shame FPV never made a Modern GTHO, considering the performance of the holy grail, who knows what they could of made

[@ziggyfreud5357]

If only it looked and handled like a 488 !

[@bushwhacker__]

Quarter mile time?

[@bigpapadrew]

4.98 seconds? there are so many cars that would leave it behind.... and I love falcons! but far out it's so not worth it

[@lukesm5747]

Mate more to a car than a 0-100

[@Bdavk]

That shirt is .....

"Incredible" Why thank you

[@jakej7493]

Please never compare to a mighty gtho

[@daffy_6632]

Even though the Falcon would destroy the GTHO around the track and everywhere! Feel modern and comfortable at the same time!

[@mahcooharper9577]

@@daffy_6632 an FG XR6 is quicker around a track than an HO but that's not really the point...

[@adriansgroi1894]

4.98 sec 0-100? All this hype up, so powerful etc. Xr8 does that time

[@daffy_6632]

It would get to 200kph a hell of lot faster and in gear acceleration would be in sain!

[@LawrenceAbramoff]

Motor are idiots! They don't know about the hidden launch control.. mines got 500rwkW and built ZF Box. It can easily do low 4s or very high 3s if you engage launch control

[@mrporsche4236]

650 hp and 0-100 in 4.98 seconds.that would be slower then standard.rear wheel drive cars like this is useless over 450 hp and dangerous.

[@zachtaylor9906]

[@Studat]

the stinger is quicker

[@LawrenceAbramoff]

No it's not!! This is more or less my car that Xtreme Ford Tuning built and it can outrun my dad's Stinger. The Stinger gets a better launch but then this walks all over it. XR8 needs a better differential and Brakes though!!

[@LawrenceAbramoff]

@@Studat I dunno about that because the Stinger runs very small honey well turbos so you can only get maybe another 100hp out of it. Whereas my XR8 with it's smaller supercharger pulley still pushes you into the seat at redline. However, if the track was tight and twisty, stinger would win for sure. It's so much sharper as it was tuned for the Nurburgring... not roll racing like the Ford

[@Bdavk]

@@LawrenceAbramoff Brakes ain't the problem, it's too heavy

[@LawrenceAbramoff]

@@Bdavk um, look at the curb weights... They're nearly identical coz the Kia has too much nannies and sound deadening. The Ford and Holdens are actually decently weighted for their size due to a lack of refinement. Driving wise though, the Stinger feels like a much smaller car. I can go around chicanes in it at speeds much faster than i dare to in the XR8 and mine has rear anti-roll bars and suspension upgraded... Still just under steers

[@davidjohnston7512]

Stuart At the end of the day the stinger is still a Kia.In ten years time it with be worth nothing ,in ten years time the falcon will be worth shitloads.

[@ossiebalboa5617]

Clickbait! Never, ever use the GTHO name in vain

[@JohnWinzil]

The gtho is an old shitbox these days 😅😅😅

[@fu8713]

Looks FUCKING gay compared to the mighty XYGTHO Who ever at Ford designing these latest Falcons are FUCKING useless they need proper racing heads overgrown hoons to design these car not some clueless little college boy who probably never even seen under a bonnet before lol GTFOH
