Since the clevo ceased production exactly 30 years ago in Nov next year maybe this model FPV30 marks the 30th anni as a tribute to the clevo, BOSS 351 anyone?

maybe its some super powerful model with 400rwkw's stock standard and 30 stands for the seconds it takes to attract every cop in a 30km radius

The OP is adament that it had FPV30 on it, and that it looked different to a falcon but full sized nonetheless, I'd say it was a tarted up Taurus.

V8 twin-turbo?? We can only dream, accounts for big noise in small noise out and the hiss noise.

Well the twin exhaust outlet almost surely points to a V-configuration engine so my money is on a V8, maybe a coyote engined car without a blower to replace GS and be the powerplant for the long awaited XR8?

No reason they wouldn't ADD an N/A car to the range as an XR8 though. |

At the end of the day it is hard to beleive without supporting evidence. I could copy and past the OP onto LS1, change the name and all of a sudden there is a new HSV model. Happy to be proven wrong though. |
