Here you go:



The bulge does look "open" now, interesting.



This pic is a bit average, but more bumps/accents to the bonnet?



Semi close up of the rims.



Close up of the lovely XR symbol in the headlights.



Covered up front, the car seems REALLY wide here.

I think they were just painted black as part of the camo with a spray can



That video was great and really showed off some great detail and confirmed a few things in question. Saw a scene of the 335 intake as well

Looks like Friday will be the day the XR8/range get's revealed.

Looking great!

You can see in the video that Mr Trickey really loves his job and FORD!

I enjoyed that!

Will it use the 335 rims? Or are they just placeholders for R&D to fit the Brembos and new wheels will be revealed on Friday whenever?


I wonder too if that bloke in the video has anything to do with/ works with/ is Spyman? He dropped off the scene just before official teasers were released

It's looking like this is going to murder the VF style wise. Bonnet bulge looks super aggressive.

If you had any doubts how serious Ford were at finishing the last Falcon strongly, then look no further. The attention to detail on this car is brilliant and it looks the goods. Going to be a long wait until March when I get one.
