Yes, a bit hard to see ford offereing a complex model line up when they are winding up operations...most we can hope for is a few special editions.

I personally never warmed to the GS because I thought it was a XR8 badged as an FPV (nothing against the car as it's an awesome package), but I think we will see it come down in price (cost savings by not using FPV spec interior items) and then appeal as a cut price V8 sedan. If it eventuates I think this is what I'd personally look at (knowing a tune gets it into new territory and big brakes can be added later).

Is it fair to say, this will be the last Australian designed and built car? ( US Designed 2015 Camry notwithstanding).

I wonder if Ford relish in the squabbles on here as in they've leaked only a tiny bit of info in the 'teaser' and all the out on the road shots are car bra covered; then they show some employees the final product as if to see who will leak anything. As a result there's so much speculation and suppostion they likely have a notice board up somewhere where the most hilarious (to them) posts are put up with yellow highlighter all over them.

Don't forget the office sweep to see who is getting closest... AFF, Car magazines or Facebook

As much as I have avoided the **** throwing going on in this thread I think you (callum31) should be very careful about what you say when it comes to a couple of guys on here as they work there and has seen in the flesh the car we are talking about.

Yes well its now a Global Testing centre, so if they let stuff leak out of there its going to cause dramas in the big house.
