Interesting, looks like FG lights but squashed. Also the body work has a similar profile above and below.

hey,

its the best looking end in the dark

like Mondeo

you get the led with just a small square for the brake lights

they've gone to just a single reverse lights on the driver side

they've really set the rear up nice considering they couldn't change the turret

hmm, well the rspec's seem to be holding if not slowly gaining value...so i can't see why the gt'f wont, besides i don't really drive all that much (i don't need to) so km's should stay fairly low anyway...my dad has the current boss335 and its already lost 30 odd thousand in only 3 years...none the less the falcon's are still a great car as i currently own a fg xr6t

Hey,

Every car loses money I know, what I was trying to say is,is the engine output more important than an freshen up FH that you can spend a little on to grunt it
The car in the flesh is sexy and in my thinking is something to wait for as a daly drive

Bumper is just filled in below lights and the groove line drops a little before running across bumper

Ill be stuffed if Ford doesnt know exactly who had that car and when. Thanks for the pics, its shaping up to be the greatest Falcon sold over the shortest period ever.

Hey
from what I've seen of the xr6 turbo it's pretty flash of the line.
I'm hearing they are going more the fuel ecom with them and that new auto's playing a big part in it it's smooth

We can bet on an improved FG based car

Hey,

I still think the XR8 is going to be the hero part with the launch something they will focus on big time

If priced right it's the car to go for in the falcon range
