All we need to see now is those xr style headlights lite up at night, to confirm if the 'hockey stick' shapes are in fact DRL's or not...i hope there are!,as they gave it a nice mean/angry look in the ford teaser video last year.

Yes. Thats because theres too many peanuts in the peanut paste sandwhich.
They would never put that colour interior in XR8. They however have put it in BAII Fairmont Ghias (or something similar anyhow).

That is a new colour, because it's completely different to Cashmere seats already available in the G6E Last edited by TC200six; 30-06-2014 at 03:21 PM. |

So this is the XR front-end?
![]() Cos this one also looks like it has the "hockey stick" lights and I'm guessing this is the G6? ![]()

Looks like the buldge is going all the way to the rear of the bonnet like a reverse cowl scoop. Mustangs were using that style for a while. Can't wait to see them on the road.
I hope the chunky bonnet will flow with the rest of the new styling. |

So the new headlights mean it won't look like a frog setup anymore? Was just a cool way of telling if it was a falcon at night time haha

The only difference between those cars is the wheels, brakes and bonnet.

That makes sense, you can see the larger bonnet on the grey car now I know to look for it.

In the past, all FOA cars have had a brass tag on the number plates (not sure what they had on them). I notice these cars don't. Anyone know what the deal is with this?

They usually use the brass tags on lease cars.

Who agreed with you? The early cars also had GS in the head light. Did you pick up on that scoop too? What grade are you in? Don't they let you take your mobile to school?
