XR's all get black as does G6E T.
The XT & G6E get cream.

That brown leather interior is just all wrong with the beige headlining. Talk about a clash - they should use the XR's charcoal headlining if someone options the tan leather interior.

Actually I don’t mind that brown leather interior but there is no way I could have it with an Octane exterior.

Not a fan of the tan/orange interior.
I prefer a light coloured roof lining. It feels more "open" than a dark coloured roof lining.

The car in the pictures is only an NA G6E hence why it has the cream/beige rooflining and associated plastics

Can anyone photoshop the grey coloured grill trim to red on an XR8 picture?
Just wondering how it would look.

Discussions are being had... I'd say there's no rush for an auto.
"We haven't spoken about XR8 volume but it's fair to say we have under-called the volume," said Ford Australia general manager marketing, David Katich. "We are just reviewing that now. Remember, the product has only been in the marketplace liter-ally the last few days at dealerships. So we are trying to get a handle now on what that XR8 de-mand is. "Will it be higher than what we forecast? Absolutely, but we will gauge that demand over the next couple of months and make adjustments." The most obvious potential restriction on increased XR8 supply is its superseded ZF HP26 auto-matic transmission. However, it is understood Ford Australia has already been in discussions with the German company to gain further supplies. http://www.carsales.com.au/news/2014...8-demand-47732 |

I couldn't see Falcon sales increase from what they are now. As sad as it is to say

Find capital, open up a lhd aftermarket workshop, and export them to lhd countries? Pretty sure the saudis would love to go sideways in something a bit more capable than a sonata or camry.
