Paddle shift...wow if true the xr8 and turbo will be a great car. I can't think of many cars on the road at the moment that will look similar to the new falcon (other than some of the Ford family already here). It's a good point of difference and will hopefully bring in some new buyers. The xr8 is shaping up to be one hell of a car that's for sure.

Paddle shift can be done. Data_Mine done it on his BF GT-P with some fiddling around.
I doubt it will have it though.

I love it, Mrs isn't sold yet but the colour isn't helping that issue.
Hopefully tomorrow brings a rear end shot. |

Looks great.
From a distance, the last GTF looks like any GT where as the last falcon will really stand out. Can't wait |
