I don't think FH has been announced yet, it appears most speculate it to either be called FH or FZ (Z being last). Ford announced GT-F to be revealed sometime in June, which should be around the time the official 2014 Falcon is to be launched/revealed.

They wont be showing off the GT-F and FH the same time. Be marketing suicide to do it when it can be milked for ages. The GT -F will be way sooner than later and a good space between the 2. They will get as much mileage out of it as they can.

Hey,
Let's keep things in perspective, I had a look at the inside of the new ground up Everest the other week and was shocked to see it had the ranger interior (two tone) in it but mind you a little updated a brand new car with the dash out of a some what old ranger And we want the world in a car that will pos only run for 5,000 units max Spyman |

Perfect timing - just in time for the release on the increase of the fuel excise... LOL.
So much enjoyment emptying your bank account completely on a single fill. Oh well - I guess less frequent visits to the servo. So from 68 odd litres to 80 ?? or more. |

standard fuel tank size on Falcon sedan is 68L, has been for a very long time - Eco-LPi is 88L on sedan, 86 on ute and petrol ute is 81L.

They should have had this option on earlier GT's as well - so we could actually travel more than 300Klm in suburban traffic before another refill - LOL |

IIRC there was a change in PG rules to have cages in for the high speed testing. So, if there is no front bar change then why the need when the aero is the same?
Unless its not, and they pulled their finger our and made the MMS Black inserts part of the package. Who knows, liking the conjecture but getting over it!

If that increased fuel capacity rumour is correct, that in itself would be a more credible link with the GTs of the past rather than trading on the 351 GT tag to get some cred............after all a larger fuel tank was originally an option on GTs and a nc option on HOs because the GT was all about Grand Touring!
