The white one also looks to have leather judging from the shine of the seats.

Just came out of the ford dealer, i did put an order in for an XR8 but they said ford has stopped production on them for the next 3 months whilst the FPV GS takes over for that time.

It is an XR8 with GS Option, that is how the dealer puts it together on his Ford program. Also insurance companies recognise it as that as i just got off the phone from them too....

the dash is an FPV one and it is FPV badged. So it also has the starter button and a build number.

It comes standard with a 302 FPV motor, cloth trim, 19inch FPV F6 wheels. Bluetooth, ipod. Premium sound and dual zone climate control.

Options are the following:
- Sat Nav
- reverse Camera
- Reverse sensors
- Metallic Paint
- Floor Mats
- ZF 6spd Auto
- Leather Interior


I am getting mine which is fully optioned for around the $58,000 mark.....

Hope that helps!!!!

Cool. Didn't bother with the brembo's?

$58,000 is what I would have expected and seems a good distance from the GT. Post pics when you can! What colour did you get?

Wouldnt that be an FPV GS then considering it has FPV badges? Not an XR8. Sounds exactly like a GS to me rather than an XR8 with GS option.
